Salisbury Real Estate LLC, this shining home is a must-see!
This classic 4-bedroom house with over 2,100 square feet of living space has been completely renovated with all new roof, brand new kitchen, new bathrooms, and all new HVAC, electric, and plumbing. Save on your utility bills with the newer tankless gas water heater. Even the windows are all newly installed double-insulated beauties.
First floor exterior is original 1915 pebbledash stucco. Pebbledash was an essential element in the palette of the Arts and Crafts movement. Pebbledash is a form of render used for external walls in which the top coat is textured by pebbles and stone fragments to create a rough finish. The wall surface is plastered with render and the pebbledash material thrown and pressed in while still wet. Pebbledash became a popular rendering technique between the 1890s and the 1930s as part of the Arts and Crafts movement which sought to revive traditional building processes as forms of vernacular architecture. It is a highly durable exterior finish, and here in this fine example, both the first floor pebbledash and second story cedar shake shingles are boasting fresh coats of pretty pale sage paint.
Inside, a spacious foyer with original fireplace (non-functioning) greets you ~ with beautiful curved doorways that lead you through to an open and wonderful floor plan. Get ready to be totally wowed by gorgeous original wood floors, all freshly refinished. Take in original Arts & Crafts woodwork, moldings, and fireplace surrounds. New light fixtures sparkle in sun-lit windows.
The sparkling new kitchen offers brand new Shaker-style cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, and pretty shades-of-grey granite tops counters and a small but efficient center work island. You'll love the soft-close drawers and the Frigidaire appliance package. The original brick chimney, whitewashed to blend with the neutral color scheme provides architectural interest. New luxury vinyl plank flooring here provides cushion underfoot for the home's chef!
Between the foyer and the kitchen, a petite hall provides a transition space where you'll find a tiny first floor half-bath with all new wall and floor tile and the cutest original circa 1915 corner sink, all reglazed to look shining and new.
