The current stewards of this 1883 Queen Anne Farmhouse have diligently revitalized it over the past year, seamlessly blending modern conveniences with the home's period charm. Step through a welcoming foyer to discover a warm living room with original details, high ceilings and gas fireplace.The formal dining room, complemented by a wood fireplace, serves as an ideal setting for gatherings and connects to a newly crafted kitchen featuring Sub Zero Fridge, Thermador Range, Quartz counters, and bespoke cabinetry. A creative touch is the dog bath in the mudroom! Ascending to the second floor unveils the primary ensuite, boasting a walk-in closet, private office, and new designer bath. Also on this floor, two spacious bedrooms with huge closets and full bath. The third floor offers versatility, perhaps as an Au-pierre or guest suite.
