Tucked away in historic Old Town sits this one-of-a-kind home that dates back to 1903 when it was a two-story brick horse stable. This captivating home sits on an oversized 50 x 78 ft lot with an unbelievable side yard designed by the highly acclaimed landscape architect Hoerr Schaudt and photographed and published in Better Homes & Garden magazine. This south facing home with 3100 sq. ft, 17ft vaulted ceilings, exposed brick, wood clad ceilings is right out of Architectural Digest. Stunning and timeless De Giulio kitchen with 43" La Cornue stove and extra thick Calcutta Gold marble countertops with sliding marble backsplash for spice storage. The dining room features a custom Holly Hunt leather and fabric built-in banquette and a coffee & beverage bar with a Sub-Zero beverage drawer, built-in ice maker and a Miele coffee/espresso/cappuccino/latte maker! The living room offers custom shelves flanking the wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open to the beautiful yard. The spacious primary suite has a wood-burning fireplace, cedar clad walk-in closet and a gorgeous bathroom with Lefroy Brooks basins and plumbing fixtures, heated floor, heated towel rack, Robern mirrors and a rustic wood clad ceiling with skylight. The main level features a family room that opens to the yard and built-in bookshelves along with 2 spacious bedrooms and an attached heated garage that is used as an office but could be a 3rd garage spot. A separate 2 car garage is also included. Very rare offering in Old Town - come see why this home is currently featured in the 2023 HGTV Ultimate House Hunt Awards in the "Homes with History" category! Lincoln Elementary School district.
