Inside you’ll delight in its classic charm blended with thoughtful modern updates. Original character shines throughout, from rare 9’ main-floor ceilings and fully wrapped oversized windows to original baseboards, solid-core doors, and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace. The west-facing orientation fills each space with natural light, creating a bright, welcoming feel even on gray days. The main floor features a proper formal entrance, comfortable living & dining areas, a breakfast nook, an office/den & full bath, all anchored by the heart of the home: an open chef’s kitchen with abundant prep space, generous island, walk-in pantry, Bertazzoni range w/ pot filler, custom cabinetry, marble countertops & a farmhouse sink.
