Built in 1848

Western Section neighbors have watched with eager anticipation as this gracious 1848
Colonial was restored over the course of two years. With a prominent spot along the
most admired stretch of Library Place, everyone can appreciate the enhanced exterior,
now clad in DURATION poly-ash siding with new roof, windows, and mahogany porches, but few
have seen how the interior's best original features were revived and complemented by
countless improvements. Sun-splashed rooms extending from the grand center hall
made this project worth the effort and expense. New wide-plank oak floors join tall
pocket doors in the living room and family room, both sized to host any occasion,
celebratory or intimate. While numerous French doors encourage gatherings to spill
outdoors, the dining room goes even further to highlight the pretty setting. It is
completely wrapped in glass for unencumbered views of the partially shaded yard and
bluestone-edged pool. With a preferred semi-open layout, the kitchen, too, peeks out at
the poolscape. Glass-front cabinetry, chef-approved appliances and new quartz
countertops are a combination that will serve beautifully for years to come. A custom
outfitted laundry room and a powder room with a dash of glam hint at the level of finish
for four new bathrooms upstairs. Follow the cupola-lit three story staircase to a selection
of nine rooms, some of them full suites with walk-in closets, which allow the private
upper levels to function as you see fit. A corner room with a fireplace makes an ideal
office or sitting room beside the main suite, which boasts a slipper tub, rain shower and
detailed tilework within its marble bath. A bonus room on the newly air conditioned top
floor may be the site of fun-filled sleepovers now, then down the road, a quiet artist's
studio. As it has done for the past 175 years, this house will continue to evolve
gracefully.
