An arched, gated arbor and stone walkway guides you to a storybook entry encased in original tile work hinting at the character carried throughout the home. Inside, original details have been beautifully preserved, including leaded-glass windows and exquisite millwork that reflect the enduring artistry of the Tudor tradition.
Just off the entryway, the living room is both elegant and inviting, defined by classic proportions and abundant southern light that fills the space throughout the day. Oversized windows bring the outdoors in, while arched openings lead into a sunlit sitting area framed by curved windows and garden views all centered around a striking tile adorned fireplace flanked by gorgeous built-in cabinetry with leaded-glass detailing.
The dining room sits adjacent, offering a beautiful extension of the main living spaces, where preserved original doors and thoughtful architectural detailing provide an understated backdrop set beneath a sculptural light fixture, a quiet nod to modernity.
Off the dining room, the kitchen combines generous function with rich cabinetry, luxury appliances, and a center island, creating an effortless hub for cooking and connection. A surround of windows brings in soft natural light, and a door provides access to the living space outdoors, making everyday indoor-outdoor flow seamless.
Upstairs, three bedrooms encompass the top floor, offering flexibility for guests, growing households, or work-from-home living. One bedroom features a charming built-in window seat that adds both warmth and function, while the third bedroom can be flexibly used as an office, providing a peaceful and practical space for remote work or creative focus. A beautifully preserved bath blends classic materials with a bright, refreshed feel, featuring timeless subway tile, clean finishes, and a distinctive leaded-glass window that brings in gentle light while maintaining privacy. Authentic and thoughtfully maintained, balancing historic charm and comfortable livability.
The primary suite is a true retreat, offering a calm sense of privacy and an atmosphere that feels cozy and expansive. Wrapped in a rich, moody color palette and surrounded by abundant windows, the room is filled with natural light and leafy views. A charming sitting area creates space to slow down and unwind, providing a quiet corner for reflection. The ensuite bath features an original tub, a walk-in shower, and beautifully maintained tile work that speaks to the home’s craftsmanship. A stained, leaded-glass window adds artistry consistent with the overall aesthetic and elevates the space with a special, unexpected touch.
The finished lower-level daylight basement expands the living experience with a bright, versatile bonus space that adapts effortlessly to modern needs. A generous seating area can be used for recreation or houseguests. The added benefit of a dedicated laundry area, 3/4 bathroom and lower-level flex room offers additional functionality.
Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard provides exceptional privacy and a true sense of retreat. A generous deck off the kitchen creates the perfect setting for entertaining and outdoor dining, while the landscaped yard below is thoughtfully designed with mature plantings, stonework, and room to relax, play, or garden—an enviable extension of the home’s indoor warmth and character.
