Beautiful three-story limestone row house was built in 1891 by acclaimed architects Horatio Wilson and Oliver Marble. This lovingly maintained home features a spacious formal living room, large enough to accommodate a seating area as well as a dining table and chairs. The separate formal dining room is currently used as a cozy family room. The fully modern kitchen has a built in kitchen table and banquet and connects to a light-filled sunroom which overlooks the new bluestone paved backyard with a dog run and 2 car garage. The second floor features 3 spacious bedrooms, two modern baths, as well as a fully-outfitted laundry room with a new washer and dryer. The impressive primary suite features a sunny bedroom, walk-in closet and fully renovated bath. The third floor boasts a roomy bedroom which is currently used as a home office as well as a full bath accessible from the hallway and an additional guest bedroom. The fully built out lower level provides an additional 1, 300 square feet of finished space, including an enormous recreation/family room with wet bar, full bathroom, 2 large storage rooms and an office or work out room, which could also be converted to a 6th bedroom. The lower level is accessible through private doors at both the front and rear of the house, making it available as a separate in-law suite. In move-in condition, this tremendous family home is a must see!
