    What's special

    Welcome to 139 Pelham Road - a move-in ready 1895 3+ story Victorian completely modernized for 2023. All of the beautiful architectural details have been maintained and every room has been updated for modern living. The details past and present are not to be missed. Through the front entrance, you’ll find a gracious hall with a built-in oak bench (with storage) and gorgeous staircase with carved moldings. The morning sun streams into the lovely living room and two enclosed porches. The first floor also has a wine tasting room and fireplace with Mercer tiles, a spacious dining room with stained glass window, a stunning kitchen with granite counter tops and custom cabinetry, new appliances, back staircase, a new half bathroom and a full mudroom leading to the backdoor overlooking a Trex deck and professionally landscaped, fenced backyard. On the second floor, you’ll find the primary suite with curved windows, new, spacious walk-in closet (a former bedroom), and new bathroom. Down the hall is the guest room, brand new guest bathroom and an additional bedroom/workout space. 3 rooms await you on the 3rd floor with a full bath. They could all be bedrooms but are currently being used as one bedroom, a media room and an office. Gorgeous hardwood floors and moldings throughout. Noteworthy additions in the past 3 years: In 2022-new kitchen extension and remodeling, new half bathroom next to the kitchen and full remodeling of guest bathroom. In 2021- a new driveway extension and transformation of a bedroom into the primary bedroom walk-in closet. In 2020- new primary bathroom. Other highlights that make 139 Pelham Road wonderfully attractive are the side entry way for easy entry off the driveway, a full basement that has been partially finished in areas but is not included in the sq. footage, a hot tub spa, garden shed and state of the art security system.
