Built in 1925, this French Provincial designed home has been meticulously renovated for modern family living while preserving its historic charm. This exceptional home showcases original architectural details, including a brick entryway, intricate paneling, detailed moldings, textured plaster finishes, and a Pewabic tile bathroom. A transformative renovation created desirable open concept living, adding a 24’ x 24’ family room that adjoins an entertainer's large eat-in kitchen, and a central dining room - perfectly sized for a 12’ table.

The fourth bedroom, additional full luxury bath and laundry room, can also be accessed via a second stairway. The third level provides a versatile fifth bedroom/hangout space with custom shelving and magnetic chalkboard walls. The fully fenced, private backyard is a serene retreat with a pergola, built-in stone gas fireplace and BBQ, a pond with a water feature, and extensive landscaping. Additional highlights include an expanded aggregate driveway, two garden gatehouses, a large garage with an L2 EV charger, and an unfinished basement with epoxy flooring and organized storage.
