This all-brick 4BR/2.5BA home offers over 4,600 sq ft of refined living space and was proudly featured on the 1965 Tour of Homes. Inside, the gourmet kitchen impresses with Amish-built cherry cabinetry, granite counters, dual convection ovens, induction cooktop with pot filler, microwave/convection combo, and herringbone ceramic tile. Rich Brazilian Koa and oak floors, coffered ceilings, and two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and character, while the spacious primary suite features its own gas fireplace for year-round comfort.
