Description

This spectacular, one-of-a-kind, quintessential North Arlington residence offers exquisite landscaping and an enchanting setting. Surrounded by homes of similar vintage and size, makes this one of the area’s prettiest streets. An expansive, covered wraparound porch, reminiscent of a gracious piazza, provides an unforgettable welcome. The verdant street lined with cherry trees, transforms into a breathtaking pink tunnel each spring. Step inside to a gracious foyer showcasing the original staircase and an elegant chandelier with an embossed, 11 ft ceiling. A spacious formal living boasting a decorative fireplace, flows into the formal dining room, offering a second decorative fireplace, where a stunning, floor-to-ceiling walk-out bay window creates an impressive architectural focal point. Both with 11 ft. ceilings and original hardwood floors, preserved in mint condition, lend warmth and timeless elegance throughout these spaces. At the heart of the home, the beautifully redone kitchen with Portuguese tiles and cabinets reaching to the 11 foot ceiling, honors the residence’s character. A charming gallery with custom benches, cushions, and moldings leads to the first of two main-level family rooms. Here, a soaring cathedral ceiling and windows spanning the rear of the room create a magnificent, light-filled gathering space. French doors open to an outdoor deck framed by a trellis draped in colorful wisteria, an idyllic setting for entertaining and a picture-perfect backdrop for engagement or wedding photographs. The second family room, just off the kitchen, features custom built-ins and inviting connections to the surrounding living spaces. French doors on the south side lead to a glass-enclosed three-season room, especially captivating at night beneath the soft glow of elegant lighting. On the north side, French doors connect the two-family rooms through the loggia, creating a graceful flow throughout this distinctive home. The upper level offers exceptional versatility, beginning with a primary suite entered through its own sitting room. Beyond lies a home office featuring separate owners’ walk-in closets. The bedroom is a private retreat, complete with a fireplace, a skylight that bathes the room in sunshine, and a cozy bench for settling in with a good book or enjoying a nightcap in your own little world. The renovated primary bathroom features a walk-in glass shower and hand-selected marble. Three additional bedrooms showcase original hardwood floors in mint condition and elegant chandeliers. They share a beautifully renovated full bathroom, also finished with hand-selected marble. The huge attic space that could be finished into even MORE living space, is accessed through the sitting room in the primary. The stair can easily be modified to provide an accommodating staircase. The lower level provides ample storage, with approximately half of the space devoted to two wine rooms featuring custom wood wine storage capable of accommodating 1, 500 bottles, along with space for two wine-tasting tables. This exceptional setting invites intimate tastings and memorable evenings with fellow wine enthusiasts. A rear-load, one-car garage offers additional generous storage. Rich in character, extraordinary in its details!
