About this property

This stunning Georgian-style home in historic Hope Valley is the fall-market jewel you've been waiting to find! Many homes like to claim the title of ''classic'' and ''elegant'', but this one truly sets the bar: a crisp, painted brick exterior is offset by real wood shutters, perfectly scaled for its large Pella windows. Set on .8 acres, the home's proportions are balanced and pleasing and belie the spaciousness of the interior. Inside, you'll love the mix of high-end finishes with refinished original hardwood floors and original trim that has been repurposed to blend beautifully with the masterful renovations that were completed in 2021. With four levels of finished space, there really is room for everyone here. You can entertain effortlessly by the living room's wood-burning fireplace, around the kitchen's grand center island, or head out back to the covered terrace and fire pit, which is easily accessible right off the formal dining room. A handsome, paneled study with floor to ceiling built-ins and a convenient mudroom located off the garage finish off the main level's traditional floor plan. Four bedrooms are conveniently located on the second floor (two with en-suite baths), the third level's bonus space would make for the perfect movie or game room (or could easily serve as an additional bedroom), and the finished basement is ideal for a gym or extra play space. Freshly painted and beautifully appointed, you're sure to fall in love when you step inside.
