From the street this 2.5 story Colonial looks starched and staid. Like the home of a bank president from another century, which it was. But walk through the front door and you will find it is an eye-pleasing mix of old and new, casual and formal, adaptable to any lifestyle. It was built in the days before computers and social media when families invited friends and neighbors over for dinner, playing cards and listening to the radio. With almost 2,300 square feet on the main level you can easily host Thanksgiving for the extended family with adults in the dining room and kids in the living room or at the eat-in kitchen table. Or throw a Super Bowl party for the entire neighborhood in the 27' x 26' family room which has an outside entrance and mini kitchen. The updated main kitchen includes a butler's pantry and laundry in a separate room. Catch up on your reading in the south side sunroom or enjoy the north side screened porch in mild weather. On the second floor there are the primary bedroom with a fireplace and en-suite bath plus another two bedrooms, one of which is a two-room package deal. Up the steep winding stairs to the third floor you will find two additional bedrooms, loads of storage and a full bath with a charming tiny tub. Move outside to discover a delightful little garden shed (or playhouse) plus additional parking beside the detached 2-car garage. Old meets new with oak floors, glass knobs, arched doorways, back staircase between floors and updated electric, HVAC, radon mitigation and so much more. Exceptional in so many ways.
