Sobre esta propiedad

This classic Tudor carries nearly a century of character, but what makes it especially interesting is the way the house evolved. Original doors, glass knobs, arched openings, radiator heat and built-ins remain, while a remarkable mid-century renovation of the original side porch added an entirely new architectural element. The enclosed porch is a standout. Rich wood tones wrap the room in unmistakable MCM warmth, while the original exterior limestone planter remains along the windows. The step-down creates a sunken-room effect, and the opened, finished space changes the circulation of the home, creating a wonderfully circular floor plan for the era, and a space that feels both distinctly mid-century and completely integrated into the original Tudor style. The bright kitchen offers plentiful cabinetry and counter space, including glass-front storage. Behind the kitchen and formal dining room rest generous bedrooms, clever built-ins, and an unusually intact collection of doors, mirrors, and hardware that reward closer inspection throughout. Original light fixtures match, from the entry to over the dining room table. That same optimism continues downstairs, where the vintage bar and rec room, potentially an original feature of the home, feel ready for a cocktail party that sort of never ended, The chance that veterans of the World Wars enjoyed this space among friends is entirely plausible. Authentic Americana, wonderfully preserved, and almost impossible to reproduce without trying too hard. And then there is outside, where a substantial, symmetrical limestone barbeque grill anchors the large back yard, complete with an integrated grillx cast iron door, and soaring stone chimney. It’s not so much a grill as it is a monument to a time when entertaining meant building a fire, and expecting a crowd of people in pencil skirts, pants, and tucked in shirts. That being said, this is not a Tudor frozen time. It is a house whose layers tell the story of how families lived and entertained across generations, from its traditional beginnings, to its confident mid-century reinvention, to reinterpretations today.
