Step into this beautifully renovated Dutch Colonial home, where classic charm harmonizes with contemporary elegance. Situated in the tranquil East Mount Airy neighborhood, this architectural gem offers three stories of meticulously updated space, featuring 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. Upon stepping onto the European-tiled front porch extending the length of the house, the ambient glow of custom designer lighting envelops the exterior, setting the tone for the home's inviting ambiance. The front door, a testament to skilled artisanship, opens to a grand foyer adorned with carefully restored wood paneling. The home was completely renovated, but all the original architectural details were respected and restored.

The first and second floors showcase restored and newly stained red oak hardwood floors, enhancing the home's timeless appeal. The spacious living room, anchored by an original wood-burning fireplace with a decorative mantle, features French doors that open to the welcoming front porch. The gourmet kitchen is a culinary haven, boasting two-tone cabinetry, a herringbone marble backsplash, polished granite countertops, and a comprehensive 6-piece appliance package. A convenient, newly renovated half bath is also located on the first floor.

A delightful surprise awaits with a custom-designed glass-enclosed room, perfect for a home office or tranquil meditation, alongside another full hall bathroom. The third floor hosts a spacious double-sized bedroom with an ensuite bath and built-in closets that you just don't see in homes. The fully finished lower level offers additional living space for entertaining, complete with a full bath and laundry room.

Outside, the lush private gardens are complemented by privacy fencing and tasteful exterior lighting, creating an ideal setting for intimate gatherings. A thoughtfully designed detached 2-car garage and driveway provide ample parking.
