Description

Proudly sitting adjacent to Cherokee Gardens in the Alta Vista corridor, this resplendent brick center hall colonial exemplifies classic architecture complimented by smart design choices and modern updates. Brick pavers lead you to the front entry, where you are welcomed into a grand foyer, anchored by the curved staircase with custom steel railing. Sight lines from here give you a glimpse into the elevated living spaces, beginning with a formal dining room that would accommodate the largest of dinner parties, complete with wainscoting, crown molding, and custom plantation shutters added by the current seller. Gracious formal living room with wood burning fireplace flows effortlessly into the expansive great room, showcasing a vaulted ceiling with stained millwork, skylights (replaced in 2026, complete with motorized solar shades) an additional fireplace, and separate HVAC added by current owner. The kitchen, connected to both the great room and formal dining, is absolutely stunning, with endless storage and counter space, updated appliances including double ovens, and both an eat-in bar space and separate dining area. The first floor is rounded out by an updated 1/2 bath powder room. Ascending the beautiful curved staircase to the second floor, you’ll find 4 generous sized bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring. Three bedrooms share a stunning full bath that has been meticulously restored, keeping with the original architectural design integrity. The primary suite is grand in scale, with endless storage including a walk-in closet, unheard of in this genre of home, a wall of custom built-ins, and attached en-suite with deep soaking tub and separate shower. The unfinished basement could easily be converted into an additional family room, media room or additional guest quarters, as it has tall ceilings and very little need to reroute HVAC and plumbing to finish out. Outside you’ll find an attached patio/deck, with pergola, 2-car garage, all backing up to green space. With many recent improvements, not limited to full attic spray foam, additional HVAC, kitchen updates, this home is truly turn-key, steps from Cherokee Park, and awaiting its new owner.
