EXQUISITE!! ONE OF A KIND! This Georgian home rich with history, just shy of a century old, has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully renovated with such incredible and top quality design elements. The owners spared no expense from the premium kitchen appliances & cabinets, trim work, bathroom updates, hardwood flooring throughout, upholstered wall coverings & custom paint finishes. Not to mention the resort/park like backyard with fish pond, in-ground salt water pool (10 person hot tub was filled in for landscaping but can be revitalized), putting green, screened gazebo, blue stone walkways & incredibly vibrant & lush landscaping. Home has a cedar closet, central vac, security, programmable thermostats, Miele coffee system, irrigation, custom iron gates, whole house generator & house fan, architecturally duplicated Marvin windows (2007 & 2019), gutter guards, newer hvac. Plaster walls. Built in safes. There is attic storage. Way too many details to share here-this home is a needle in the haystack, filled with charm and character. See owner feature sheet in docs for additional info.
