Just in time for the tulips to bloom, this storybook Dutch Colonial is on market for the first time since its award winning renovation by Tom Haines in 2020. This main floor expansion beautifully commands natural light from all directions and versatility in space, while meticulously preserving the historic luster of the original home. Greet guests under exquisite haint blue trim, welcoming them into the home’s entry hall, which is flanked by gracious living spaces. Converse with friends by the living room’s working gas fireplace, or sip coffee while overlooking the back garden in the adjoining sunroom, featuring wall-to-wall windows and a striking pyramid skylight. Large, sun soaked dining room to the left of the foyer leads to a truly one-of-a-kind, gourmet kitchen that boasts quartz countertops, a statement copper hood with ceramic tile surround to the ceiling, Jenn-Air and Cove appliances, farmhouse sink, large bay window in the breakfast area, and too many other custom details to list. In the home’s rear, bespoke built-ins seamlessly blend old and new in the mudroom, finished with the home’s original rounded back door, carefully relocated during the restoration. Through French doors, enter the first floor primary suite, including marble-tiled bathroom with walk-in closet. The first floor is completed with a cozy screened porch off the living room, as well as a powder room and coat closet located along the entry hall. Ascend the stairs to three additional bedrooms, including a second primary suite, hall bath, and office space or fifth bedroom. Enjoy beautifully maintained historic wood floors throughout the second floor, boasting magnificent light and seasonal river views. Dubbed one of the neighborhood’s coveted ‘tulip houses,’ buyers will fall in love with this home’s immaculate landscaping through every season and its proximity to the river. This lovely lot is nestled on one of the community’s most treasured blocks, walkable to all the wonderful small businesses Westover Hills has to offer.
