Realtor Comments
This turnkey New York Home evokes the romance of a French country house with its steeply pitched roof, gothic arches and decorative brackets. It has an irresistibly enchanted quality with its arches, fanciful windows, built-in cabinetry, mature, professionally landscaped gardens and undeniable storybook vibe, but there is even more! The home has also been impeccably, meticulously, and lovingly maintained by the long term owners, so it is move-in ready.
Interior
The large living room includes a lovely original gas fireplace; leaded and stained glass windows, doors and cabinets; and original woodwork throughout. A grand 3-season side porch with new mahogany flooring is a special feature of this home that significantly expands the first floor footprint. The eat-in kitchen has a massive Garland range and offers direct access to the rear deck for convenient outdoor entertaining. There is a sun-filled south facing dining room with original leaded glass built-in storage, and a convenient powder room off the kitchen. Up the decorative carved staircase are 5 bedrooms plus a home office, and a full bath. Off the primary bedroom are charming original twin marble topped vanities and a private enclosed second floor porch that spans the entire width of the house. The basement is finished with a full bath, a cozy guest bedroom, deluxe laundry room, huge play space and loads of storage.
Exterior
The rear yard includes a spacious deck for entertaining, a large lawn with a play area, and a wooded “mini hiking trail” for young adventurers to explore. The extensive gardens were designed to deliver colorful blooms from May through October and there is a watering system in place for easy maintenance. The private driveway alone accommodates up to 5 vehicles, and there is also a 2-car garage. This is the house dreams are made of. Prepare to fall head over heels in love with 215 Marlborough Road.
