Property Description
Center-of-town living meets iconic architecture in this Walter Thomas Mills House-a true Patton & Fisher masterpiece-where natural light pours through every level and classic details are beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated. A wide, expansive 10' staircase leads to the inviting front porch and into a grand foyer that opens to a stately library, an elegant living room with fireplace and curved bay windows, and a generous sunroom. The dining room flows seamlessly into the heart of the home: an updated kitchen and family room spanning the entire back of the house, complete with a newer gas fireplace-perfect for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The kitchen is a dream for cooks, featuring custom Plato Woodwork cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador ovens, and a Wolf five-burner cooktop. Both the kitchen and family room overlook the exceptional back porch (2015), designed for entertaining and detailed with custom stone piers that thoughtfully echo the front porch. Outside, enjoy a professionally landscaped yard, bluestone patio, and newer three-car garage (2015). Upstairs, the second floor offers four spacious bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a designer bath and generous walk-in closet, plus two additional updated full hall baths and a highly sought-after second-floor laundry room with a charming side porch. The fully finished third floor is not to be missed-offering a versatile bedroom/office and a vaulted-ceiling family room, complemented by a custom bath with steam shower-ideal as a private guest retreat. A charming mudroom with custom cubbies, a full basement with abundant storage, and numerous improvements-including new HVAC-round out this exceptional home. And yes: each full bathroom features heated floors! See the improvements list and survey under Additional Information.
