Description

Simply Magnificent in McKenzie Square; a stunning blend of old world charm and today's transitional living in this incredibly maintained Victorian home! Renovated by a renown local architectural firm, the attention to detail throughout this home is what makes it one of a kind. Featuring lovely millwork, handcrafted leaded glass transom windows, hardwood floors with custom wood inlay, are but a few of the high touches that make this home unique. Guests will be greeted by the welcoming front porch as they enter into the inviting and spacious foyer and be wowed by the formal dining room with high coffered ceilings and pocket french doors that lead to the multipurpose living room. The kitchen has been updated featuring white custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances and opens to a comfortable family room, showcasing the beautiful fireplace with windows abound. In addition, the 1st floor also offers a well outfitted mudroom with numerous cubbies and a breakfast banquette adjacent to the kitchen. The serene private Primary suite is appointed with dual walk in closets and a lovely spa-like bath. Three more large sun-filled bedrooms, a hall bath and a designated laundry room complete the 2nd floor. The remodeled basement has a recreational area, a separate craft room with sink and a full updated bath, along with a private office and a guest bedroom. The exterior of the home is equally pleasing featuring a large front porch, along with a 2nd wrap around porch leading to the paver patio and professionally landscaped yard. A 2.5 car garage with an attic and storage is an added bonus. Garage measures approx. 22'4" x 24'4" and storage addition is approx. 8'6" x 5'6". This home is on the premier block in McKenzie Square, close to town, school and train. This is a block party kind of street where neighbors converse while out walking their dogs and lemonade stands pop up throughout the warmer months. This is truly a masterpiece to behold!
