This is a truly stunning, large, 1937 center hall brick colonial on prominent, beautifully landscaped, large corner lot in the heart of OBSERVATORY CIRCLE with an exceptional floor plan including a rare, Two-Car ATTACHED garage in just the right place! One enters the house into a handsome, wide and deep Entry Hall with elegant set-back stairs, powder room and coat closet. On one side of the hall is a lovely and grand formal Living Room with Fireplace which is open to a large welcoming Family Room on the back of the house--all with French doors leading to a Covered Terrace and the private, fully-fenced grassy garden and connected rear terrace with stone pavers. On the other side of the front hall is a gracious and large formal Dining Room leading to a gorgeous, bright and inviting "Morning Room" or Library/Office with great built-in bookcases and cabinetry including a wonderful big Window Seat. Behind the dining room is a large open Kitchen with Island and Breakfast Bar, open to a light-filled Breakfast Room which connects to the Family Room. The flow from one room to the next is really perfect on this floor as are the proportions of the rooms! There is a convenient Mud Room off of the kitchen with direct access to the Garage and also to the back terrace. Please refer to the floor plans for more information.
The UPSTAIRS two floors comprise a total of six large Bedrooms and four Full Baths: Four bedrooms/three baths are on the 2nd floor, and another two bedrooms and hall bath are on the top floor. There are hardwood floors in beautiful condition on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors.
The basement offers a great opportunity for further improvement. It is mostly partially unfinished space used for storage and laundry, but it does include a separate large potential bedroom #7 with an ensuite full bath.
