One-of-a-kind English Tudor completely transformed from the top of it's steep roof line to the bottom of the extra deep sunken finished basement! Every detail and inch of space of this home renovation was thoughtfully designed. So much of this home's historical charm has been preserved and complimented with contemporary finishes for today's modern lifestyle. It's a complete head to toe makeover that makes for the best "before and after" photos! Step into the foyer through the original leaded-glass front door, protected from the elements with a new custom glass arched storm door. The foyer features gorgeous slate flooring complete with a sizable coat closet with original solid wood door and a vintage glass door knob that you can find throughout the house. The powder room located off the foyer was just updated with solid poplar beadboard, fresh paint, updated fixtures complete with a built-in original medicine cabinet. Keep cozy in the intimate, light-filled living room with the recently restored fireplace updated with a ventless remote start. Through the original french doors, step down into the all brick sunroom/office with heated tile floors and the most beautiful arched windows you've ever seen! Surrounded by light in all 3 side of this space, it's soon to be your favorite spot to sip a cup of coffee, read a book or host a Zoom call. Beyond the living room through double arched doorways you'll find a sprawling space that was meticulously expanded from the original structure featuring a 2 story addition plus extra deep basement. An entertainers' dream with a dining space large enough for a 10 person dining room table that opens to a gorgeous modern kitchen. Custom concrete countertops adorn the 11 foot island with stainless steel basin sink. High-end Jenn Air appliances include a refrigerator, dishwasher, gas stovetop, griddle, digital electric oven and built in steam oven!
