No detail was overlooked in this beautifully updated classic Dutch Colonial home only 1 short block from Elizabeth Park's rose garden entrance. Timeless architectural details, including abundant original moulding and wainscoting, blend seamlessly with modern upgrades in this oversized 3 bedroom home with option to convert to 4 bedrooms. Anchoring the spacious living room is a gracious, original wood-burning fireplace, setting the stage for effortless entertaining. Just beyond, a light-filled sunroom lined with large windows offers a warm, private escape, complete with HVAC vents for year-round comfort. Step through the sunroom door to the professionally landscaped, fully fenced in yard featuring priceless mature plantings and historic trees. Back inside, the formal dining room features custom built-in cabinetry and original carved-wooden details. The dining room flows naturally into the show-stopping kitchen featuring newly installed high-end quartz countertops and porcelain tile backsplash, refinished cabinetry with new hardware, Brazilian cherrywood floors, and professional-grade Thermador appliances. A side door leads out to a private brick patio, ideal for outdoor dining and gatherings. Just off the kitchen, a versatile eat-in breakfast room offers flexible use as a home office, den, or fourth bedroom (as originally intended), complete with a closet and access to a full bath. Upstairs, you'll find three oversized bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary suite with dual closets, built-in drawers, and a large private en suite bath with separate shower and tub. The lower level expands the living space further with a freshly-designed office and a fully finished recreation room featuring a built-in wet bar and rich Pecky Cypress paneling. From here, direct access leads to a two-car garage featuring epoxy flooring and built in storage/organizational wall systems. Fresh interior and exterior paint, a new HVAC system, new washer and dryer, and updated lighting add comfort and style. This home is in an exceptional location near Elizabeth Park, with its renowned gardens, walking paths, tennis courts, concerts/events, and dining.
