About this home
Completely renovated and thoughtfully reimagined, this home offers the best of both worlds - timeless character paired with today's modern updates. From the moment you arrive, the deep front porch sets the tone, a perfect spot to relax and watch the world go by.
Inside, wood floors run throughout the home. The recently renovated kitchen is a true standout, featuring new high-end appliances along with generous counter and cabinet space designed for everyday living and entertaining alike. Just off the main living areas, a large mudroom and laundry space keeps busy households organized with ease.
The flexible floor plan includes a cozy family room complete with a full bathroom, making it an ideal option for a first-floor bedroom or private guest suite. A beautifully updated primary suite features a gorgeous walk-in closet that will delight any clotheshorse and a completely updated en suite bath.
Efficiency meets peace of mind with a new boiler, updated electrical panel, replacement windows and an energy-conscious setup that includes a brand new solar water heater along with owned solar panels - both thermal for hot water and photovoltaic for electricity.
Storage is well thought out with a convenient pull-down attic.
Outside, the deep private backyard creates a true extension of the home. Whether you're dining al fresco on the 700 square foot deck, relaxing, or enjoying a soak in the hot tub, this outdoor oasis is where you'll spend your summer days. And for those who've ever dreamed of a little backyard hobby - Cluckingham Palace is ready and waiting for your baby chicks.
All of this in a location that's hard to beat - walkable to the heart of Delmar and just minutes to shopping and conveniences in Glenmont....
