Up the elegant stairwell to the first upper level, there is a spacious, sunlit primary bedroom with its own fireplace and ensuite bathroom, plus 3 additional bedrooms, a private deck, a hallway bath and laundry facilities. On the top level of the residence, a private bedroom with bay window, additional bedroom and bathroom provide space for family members or guests and complete the interior of this grand home. A deck on the main level provides for outdoor living space, with steps down to the yard and patio. Set back from the street with a landscaped front yard and terrace, the brick residence has an imposing presence and architectural detailing reflecting the quality and taste of an earlier era. The rear of the residence has a sizable yard, patio and a parking pad for 2 cars plus extra parking space. Recent improvements include roof, HVAC, water heater, and on-demand hot water.
