Property Description
Fabulous and functional! Completely renovated home off Lore Ave in quiet niche of N. Wilm. Captivating character in this showpiece with blend of period craftsmanship with sought-after d?cor of today. Black wrought iron trellis offers entre to winding slate sidewalk and covered front porch with brick steps and landing, and arc transom window. Warm color palette creates inviting rooms. Gorgeous hardwoods in main living space are accented by crown molding, millwork and 6-inch baseboards. FR features brick FP with insert and windows on front and back wall. Wall space is turned into decorative highlight with framed photos. Spacious and gracious, this room is the first stop in entertaining. Glass-pane door leads to sunken sunroom with carpeting, 3 walls of windows, wood-plank ceiling and brick wall. Whether it's office space or a cozy place, it's sure to be low-key, well-loved location in home. Irresistible appeal in DR with built-in corner hutch and chair rail. Perfect for intimate dining or everyday dinners. Kitchen is seamless to DR and boasts 2-tiered counter with stools that offer extra seating plus easy conversation between rooms. Dual duty! Pendant lighting adds panache! Rich wood countertops and wide-plank wood flooring contrast beautifully with SS upscale appliances. Rustic deep farm kitchen sink complements sleek subway tile backsplash. Space-saving shelving accommodates cookbooks, collectibles and wine glasses. Off kitchen is ceramic tile mudroom with bead board. Here forgotten corners are made useful with built-in cubbies, shelves and bench. Peekaboo pocket door leads to PR with angled ceiling and cherry vanity with granite top. Handsome all-hardwood steps look to FR and lead to 2nd level with 3 BRS and bath that fan out from upper foyer. All 3 BRs are super spacious and include soft carpeting, crown molding, wide baseboards and ceiling fans. Extra bonus are closets with deep space and extra millwork around doorways! Large full bath is spectacular and takes luxury to next level with combination of earthy bead board and modern all-ceramic tile shower, travertine tile with heated floor, cherry vanity with dual sink and linen closet. Outdoors is private and spacious. Open deck plus gravel play area and ideal Adirondack seating adjacent. Detached 1-car garage and big fenced-in backyard shrouded in tall evergreens offers privacy screen. Backyard that begs for BBQs! Nearby to Phil Pike, easy access to I-95 and 20 mins. to Phil. Airport. Truly charming!
