Property Description
Don't miss an opportunity to own this unique Four-Square style home in the heart of historic Old Town's Parker Gray District. Full of history, this 103-year-old home, built in 1920, is an all brick, detached home, and was constructed in 1928 by the B.B. Ezrine Construction Company, a prominent name and builder during that time. This three- story Wardman-style home is highly unusual in that it originally had Craftsman style architectural detailing, versus the more colonial style clapboard homes seen in this area. Located Just blocks from King Street and the King Street Metro it is a short stroll to the waterfront. It features extensive updates throughout the home – the owner invested nearly $200,000 into modernizing it, bringing together modern necessities and style while preserving the historical charm. Once you enter the foyer, you will see the stunning fireplace, which is the focal point of the room along with the very large built-in LG TV, that conveys. Next to the stairs there is a floor to ceiling glass wall that creates safety for the little ones, while allowing light to pour into the entire 1st floor space. Notice the beautiful hardwood floors, and the well-placed corner dry bar that is perfect for entertaining or for serving snacks and drinks. And if this isn't enough, head outside to the large backyard, where you have an abundance of space to have a seating area with firepit, grills, outdoor kitchen, a garden (it gets great sunlight), or kids play area or a great space for your dog(s). Heading past the entry you step into the beautiful gourmet Chef's kitchen that is equipped with Thermador appliances and sleek white cabinets. The countertops are honed Granite in a leather finish, which work beautifully with the glass tile backsplashes. The cabinets have lighted interiors, lighted drawers, and there are two trash/recycle base cabinets. The Thermador gas range is Chef's quality and include a convection oven and professional style exhaust hood. The Thermador dishwasher is not only super quiet, but it is lighted inside. The overly tall Thermador French door counter depth (built-in) refrigerator holds enough to keep you from having to make so many strips to the grocery store. And, in the lower level, there is a chest freezer to hold your Costco frozen goods. The commercial grade Maytag oversized front loading washer and dryer will amaze you. They even have steam and Wi-Fi connectivity, which can save you trips downstairs. The lower level – once a low ceiling unfinished basement, is now a full height recreation room/den with a wall mounted TV (which conveys), built in cabinetry, a large storage room, a new modern full bathroom, and the laundry area. Whether you use the space as a den, sports room, fitness area, guest room, or a playroom for the kids, you will appreciate having the extra space. And to help you with your energy bills, the energy saving heating and cooling units have remote control thermostats in all bedrooms, dining room and living room; thus, allowing you to save on energy bills by controlling each space separately. NOT a townhouse - It is a detached house with a large, fenced backyard, a storage shed, and off-street parking. Enjoy sunny days or warm evenings lounging in the backyard, entertaining, or making smores over an outdoor firepit. The backyard is oversized and completely fenced. The hardscaping is in place – just bring your furniture, grill, smoker, or there is plenty of room for an outdoor kitchen. And if that isn't enough, you can head to the lovely front porch and enjoy the Western exposure all while greeting your neighbors– and their dogs out for their daily walks. Living in Old Town is about living a lifestyle, no car required.
