This home is in the tradition of many of the grand High Street homes: historically significant, set on over an acre of land, with lush gardens, close to downtown, and an interior that strikes a perfect balance between the past and the present. The house has beautiful wide pine floors throughout, a large, well-appointed kitchen and dining area -- perfect for intimate dinners or lavish parties. There are formal rooms with perfectly restored fireplaces (9) and built-in bookshelves throughout. There’s a grand, sweeping entry with a rare, “floating” staircase, classic landing and an elegant Palladian window overlooking the property with mature plantings and massive old trees defined by rolling lawns. This is a home for entertaining, with 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths, including a 3rd floor, two-bedroom space that also includes a full bath and 2nd laundry: perfect for your teens or guests! All this plus the 1-bedroom legal carriage house apartment. Truly a majestic home.1stSHOWING SUNDAY 9/17
