Renovated in 2017 as a modern classic with an Amish custom kitchen by John Risler and Company that features solid wood cabinetry with antique glass cabinets as well as soft close doors and drawers. From top to bottom this house has been renovated with true craftsmanship. The home has new windows, immaculate brick pointing and historic code wooden shutters with a freshly painted exterior. The glorious chef’s kitchen in the middle of the open concept first floor has all professional Viking appliances with a double convection oven with six burners and a gas grill. Lighting fixtures and hardware are from Restoration Hardware. The custom pantry, wall to ceiling cabinets as well as island with base cabinets provides more than generous storage. The kitchen boasts slabs of gorgeous granite with matching full backsplash with a pot filler above the stove. A large hood above the range vents externally. The center island with a forged copper sink and wet bar offers ample area for food prep and counter eating while entertaining or enjoying a night at home. The custom cabinetry carries into the dining area offering an additional serving surface and cabinet storage with wine glass racks inside. Don't leave this area without looking up at the exquisite coffered ceilings. The living area has a beautiful wooden carved mantle and gas fireplace and a large powder room that boasts natural light from a sun roof and heated floors. A hi-fidelity sound system is available on this first level. The home has sealed exposed brick walls on all three levels and every floor has 8 inch white wood trim and baseboards to complete the serene feel of an upscale home.

On the second level are three bedrooms and a full spa steam shower with marble and granite and high ceilings. The full third level is the master suite with built-in California Closets, a large step down sitting area, a sleeping area large enough for a California King bed, and a full bath with jacuzzi tub.

The house has central air conditioning, wide planked ebony Brazilian teak hardwood floors, plantation shutters on the first floor front and Smith and Noble shades. The rear yard is a two-tiered brick French Garden oasis with several garden areas with mature roses and hydrangea and will be lovely for your south facing blooms. This house shares a "grocer's" alley with it's neighbor to the west for easy trash removal and access via the backyard and the iron gate. First showings can be arranged for Saturday, August 20th between 11:00 and 3:00 and then again on Sunday, August 21st during the same hours.
