EXTRAVAGANT ESTATE... This presidential white pillared colonial 2-story home accentuates the elegance of the past with the capacity to comfortably accommodate the amenities of today. 1/4-acre of fenced lush landscape particularly placed along the concrete drive ending into the side loading garage. Impressive from the moment you step into the lordly 2-story Chester Marquina Versailles tiled foyer flanked by a sun-drenched stately living room leading into a formal 8-seat dining area ideal for gracious entertaining. With plenty of natural light throughout the home, the restful family room provides another comfortable place to stretch out for an afternoon of reading, relaxing, or daydreaming next to the wood-burning gas start fireplace, corner wet bar and windowed sanctuary that overlooks the brick paver patio and pergola. Expansive kitchen boasts built-in double wall ovens, gas cooktop, butcher-top island, loads of storage and a breakfast room which connects to an over-sized mud room and laundry while also providing additional access to the backyard. The 2nd floor features 4 generous-sized bedrooms including the primary en-suite which showcases a large dressing area and walk-in closet. Lower level offers a big basement plus a capacious crawl space. Many additional classical style features and sophisticated details are well-preserved and recently restored: extensive millwork detailing, dentil molding, wainscoting, and original pocket doors. This home has outstanding structural integrity and a very long history of family ownership and priceless memories. Ready & waiting for a passionate owner to fill it with life and love for years to come.
