5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

This 1920's Cottage-style home is an exclusive sanctuary in Geddes Heights, with direct access to Nichols Arboretum and entre to its beautiful woods, meadow, and famous peony gardens. The many updates reflect a sensitivity to the original unassuming charm. Luxurious baths feature claw-foot tubs and antique washstands alongside marble European showers and mother-of-pearl backsplashes. The exceptional kitchen renovation seamlessly blends high-end appliances for the avid cook with cabinetry and finishes that enhance original details. The Miele coffee bar was custom crafted to replicate a kitchen cupboard commonly found in a cottage of that era. The primary bedroom suite on the main floor is sumptuous. It is a private space, with office, bedroom closets, dressing room and full bath. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and a full bath, family room/office. Entertaining is a breeze to host on the back stone patio. It has access from the dining room and 4 season room. Double doors to the garage allow caterers to stage there. The terraced garden is a lyrical space. The stone path winds past stone benches, a gentle fountain, a hommock for afternoon naps, a firepit for cool evenings. At the end of the path is a large studio plumbed for a bath. Proximity to the house could facilitate a connection between the spaces. Supremely convenient location in a neighborhood of gracious homes. Walk to the Med Center, UM main campus and downtown. Walk to Angell elementary.
