This historic home in Matthaei Farm offers both charm and convenience, particularly for those seeking proximity to local hospitals. As one of the original houses on property that was developed into a neighborhood known for its preservationist ideals and protected natural beauty, it provides a serene yet accessible living environment. The house is surrounded by trees and lawn, with the west side sloping to the valley and pond below; sit on the deck and watch gorgeous sunsets. Owners have continuously updated and improved the home while preserving its character. The open living area highlights original wood beams and features three sets of patio doors to maximize sunshine, views, and access to the exterior. The kitchen was completely remodeled to add storage, modern efficient appliance s, and soft-close cabinets, with a farmhouse sink and butcher block counters. The first-floor primary bedroom was expanded with a walk-in closet and renovated with a glass shower tile, shiplap-style wall detail, Euro glass, and wood-look floor tile. Also on the main floor, a dreamy office with a vaulted ceiling and large windows overlooks the incredible landscape. The first floor is completed by a second bedroom, a mud-room with built-ins, laundry, and a half bath. Upstairs, the expansive third bedroom suite includes an en suite bath and living area. Numerous updates, both cosmetic and mechanical, enhance this home's appeal; see attachments and tour for more details. Residents may enjoy the use of The Pond House, two swimming ponds, tennis courts, 20 acres of woods and meadows, and a mile of scenic walking trails.
