Truly Exceptional two story brick and stone home with outstanding curb appeal. Attractive light brown brick, leaded glass windows, terra-cotta colored clay tile roof and professional landscaping. The owner commissioned a craftsman to design and build an extraordinary entryway including door, sidelights, and transom incorporating art glass which matches the windows of the home. You will be impressed when you enter the home with gleaming oak floors, light filled rooms, soft neutral colors, high 9' ceilings and custom window treatments. The owner added Crown Moldings and Shaker style wooden radiator covers throughout. The woodwork is in pristine condition. The interior doors operate like they were just installed and have the period glass door knobs. The family room and sunroom are very comfortable with a wood-burning fireplace and plenty of space for a large screen tv, sound system and your favorite lounging furniture. The dining room is intimate with a Restoration Hardware light fixture, roman shades on three side windows and three leaded windows set high on the far wall.
