Property Description

SELLERS temporarily took this off the market to make substantial updates so if you saw it before, please come back! Truly move in ready! (See list of improvements in documents with costs.) They have spent approximately $30,000 on this quintessential Stratton Hammon design! This house showcases several Hammon firsts; features that define the distinctive three-dimensional richness of some of his most stunning homes. Oversized windows coupled with unique ceiling height changes, make the 1935 house work both vertically and horizontally - incorporating the fall-away lot beautifully. Charming entry through arched French doors leads to a circular oak staircase with one-of-a-kind barley twist balusters. This spiral stair leads to the dining room, spacious kitchen and glass French doors that access a surprise sunken garden and bring the exceptional gardens into view. Expansive living room with bow spring-vaulted (barrel) ceiling connects to a modern, slate floor sunroom via a see-through, ventless fireplace. This 2,726 sq. ft. home has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths with antique rim door locks throughout. Beautiful wood floors upstairs lead to quarter sawn oak, parquet, and brick flooring on the lower level. Lush landscaping, featured on two garden tours will WOW you! Outdoor living galore: Brick sunken garden off dining room; flagstone terrace with hand-crafted stone walls; and a fabulous Trex deck with Chippendale-style railings! In keeping with the artistic, creative charm of the home, an old tree near the back corner of the lot was transformed by a local sculptor into a whimsical decorative lighthouse. The house placement on the .26-acre corner lot gives enormous privacy and a feeling of a much bigger property.
