Property Description
A rare opportunity, offering you an exquisite lifestyle, has found its way on the market. This historic home, crafted in 1905 and nestled along estate row in north Olde Dover, beautifully blends both bygone-time charm coupled with current era amenities. A spaciously-wide, colonnade picture postcard front porch first welcomes you, complete with just what you would hope for... painted plank flooring, turned crisp white balusters trimmed with dark wood and of course, your own porch swing. You'll find yourself so enamored, you'll want to sit with an icy lemonade and just watch the world for awhile, before you even tour the home!
The chandeliered Foyer instantly embraces you and your guests with ten foot ceilings, rich toned hardwood floors, and glimpses of the adjoining rooms. An arched entry invites you into the Sitting Room Parlour, which showcases a meticulously restored working fireplace, pocket doors, and a matched pair of built in, lighted curio cabinets framing the archway. There you'll discover a single french door which leads you to an enticing all-season windowed Respite Porch, with wide plank floors and ceiling fan, a delightful space for catching up with others while sipping a beverage.
3800 square feet, plus, an additional 800 sq ft third floor walk up penthouse, complete with separate entrance, kitchen and bath. Could be used as a rental, for in laws, or perhaps for relatives.
Your ample Owner Suite also offers you a recently added delight, your own private and enclosed, window-lined sitting room porch, overlooking the treed backyard. Precisely the place to start and end your day in a quiet spot all your own.
Your property stretches from the front entrance street all the way back to another street with a separate garage, however... your backyard just might become your favorite place of all. Reminiscent of an English privacy garden, its tree canopied and lushly landscaped, offering you a secluded courtyard that will make you feel transported far away from the maddening world.
This home entices you with so many wonderfully quiet and charming spots to enjoy your morning beverage, you'll be hard pressed to decide on which one to spend time in!
The owners lovingly maintained and improved this beauty, along with numerous upgrades. There are so many more discoveries, nooks and charm within that cannot possibly all be mentioned here. You'll find stained glass features, many hand crafted by the owner; the craftsman-proud woodwork trim, the multiple fireplaces, the Music Room Parlour and television room. There's a gorgeous dinning room and a “Spirits Lounge” hosting a solid wood bar. Take note the butcher block island in the eat in kitchen, There's a deck outside and a basement. Leisurely delve into the lavish photos but tour this lovely and rare beauty soon.
