This grandly classic 5 BR, 5 BA, 5000 sf home, with extensively upgraded modern amenities, was designed by noted architect J Bryant Heard in 1934, with a 1949 kitchen addition by Coates Carter. Lovingly restored over the past 11 years, it features 3 working fireplaces, hardwood floors, and many elegant period details. A full list of improvements is included in the listing. The large living room, and family room with marble wet bar, have huge scenic windows overlooking a massive backyard with a flagstone terrace and outdoor fireplace. The large kitchen is a chef's dream with plenty of cabinetry and counterspace, upgraded appliances, a full pantry and direct access to a screened dining porch. The primary bedroom on the second floor includes a bathroom in Carrera marble, with steam shower, heated floor and Jacuzzi tub. The basement has plenty of storage, a sunny bedroom/office combo (with fiber optic service and full bath), and access to a covered patio area, already wired for a hot tub. This home has so many attractions you have to see it yourself.
