Inside, elegant proportions, period-inspired details & carefully curated finishes create a home that feels both sophisticated & welcoming. Separately metered, the property includes a 1-bed apartment ideal for extended family, guests, income potential or a home-based business as well as a purpose-built 2.5 car garage W heated floors, raised electrical outlets, an air filtration system & loft storage, making it a dream space for hobbyists, entrepreneurs, or car enthusiasts.
