This beautifully reimagined Victorian sits elegantly back from the street behind a grand circular driveway, offering a rare blend of secluded privacy and upscale modern living. Inside, soaring nine-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and well-cared-for interior walls and trim accentuate the preserved period charm. The heart of the home is a chef’s dream kitchen boasting a dazzling 10-foot island, granite countertops, a new stove, and abundant storage. A flexible and expansive floor plan offers four bedrooms on the second floor and a versatile third floor featuring an optional main suite plus two bonus rooms—ideal for a second family room, large home office or gym—all tied together by recently refinished hardwood floors. The first and second floors feature a full bathroom, and the third floor has a bathroom with a bathtub with slightly limited standing room. The home features many recently updated spaces with contemporary finishes, while brand-new mini-split systems provide efficient, tailored climate control throughout. The massive unfinished basement offers ample storage space. A wonderful sunroom overlooks the street. Outside, the large professionally landscaped lot boasts a detached garage, an EV charging outlet on the side of the house, a spacious back deck for grilling or watching spectacular sunsets over the charming Bear Hill neighborhood and the manicured green expanse of the golf course beyond, and a newly installed, spacious fenced-in area perfect for a playground or a safe space to let pets out. Ideally located in the Robin Hood School district and just one mile from the commuter rail, this move-in-ready masterpiece truly has it all.
