Description
Spacious, corner single family home on quiet, tree-lined University City block. Incredible light from all four exposures along with raised gardens above the street for maximum privacy. Multi-car parking and outdoor space--situated on an oversized lot. Beautiful character and hardwood floors. 4-6 bedrooms; 3 full baths; 3 half baths; a sunroom; several family rooms, offices, or flex rooms; and a large finished lower level. Garage plus 3-5 car secure driveway parking. This pristinely maintained home offers so many options for modern living. The current owners used it as premier live-work space, with offices and flexible living space on the 1st floor. An elevator connects the 1st floor with the superb finished lower level and garage/parking. The 2nd floor offers the kitchen and open living and dining area. The full primary suite, excellent storage, full-size washer/dryer, and another full bath. The third floor offers three more bedrooms and a full bath. Perfect flexible space for a work-from-home family configured as is. Or readily convert part of the first floor into one or two additional bedrooms suites by converting the existing half baths into full baths. If desired, add a kitchen for a fully contained first floor living suite. Perfect for multi-generational families or any flexible living arrangements to meet your exact needs. Make any changes you desire and still retain space for live-work or any flexible needs. This home has been lovingly cared for by long-term owner occupants. All electric rewired and modern.
