Property details

About 219 Forest St

Oh, how beautiful life can be when lifestyle & beauty align! Privately perched high above 'The Heights"', a pergola-covered front porch offers a bird's-eye view of the sunset complemented by a blend of patio space & lush, mature gardens! Designed to embrace a seamless indoor-outdoor aesthetic, the main level is rich in organic material, features clever built-ins, & offers versatility at every turn. A bright & airy sunroom doubles as a dining room, while a relaxed “den” area off the kitchen beautifully fuses 1920’s craftsmanship w/a mid-century vibe. Next up - a spa-bath w/soaking tub & two flexible-use rooms (could serve as bedrooms, office etc.) complete the main level. Upstairs, you’ll feel like you’ve entered a luxurious tree house, complete w/3 bedrooms & a full bath. Energy conscientious folks will appreciate that the solar panels have consistently covered all electricity costs, including all mini-split heat/AC units! Neat & clean, the lower level is ripe w/finishing potential!
