Description

Designed by Aurora-born society architect Walter Stephen Frazier in 1937, this house exhibits refined charm and a perfect sense of scale. From the 9-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows in the formal living and dining rooms, to the private guest quarters, to the spacious glass sun room set deep into professionally designed landscaping, the house pleases at every turn. The breakfast/hearth room features a brick fireplace and a wall of windows looking into the garden. The sunken family room is notable for a fireplace, a wall of built-in bookshelves and an exposed-brick feature wall. A completely remodeled bath with custom tile shower serves the primary bedroom. The guest quarters are housed in an attached wing and have an private full bath. The basement is waterproofed, and has drywall, carpeting and an adorable little vintage enclosed bar as well as a laundry area and workout space. The back yard features beautiful flowering shrubs and plants and good privacy with arborvitae and hemlock, as well as a brick and stone fire-pit and paved patio. Exterior was newly painted in 2021. Four bedrooms, 3.5 baths. Privacy gates on the driveway and a two-car garage with custom cabinets. Make sure you take note of the special and unexpected storage in the home. A true gem of Aurora!
