uilt circa 1898, this historically significant colonial sits atop
three-quarters of an acre of serene property. Positioned above
the street, this fine home was originally known as ‘The Knoll’ and is
a masterful example of neo-Federal style architecture.
Custom wall coverings are framed by deep crown moldings and
panel wainscoting. French doors open to a three-season porch with
a Douglas-fir hardwood floor, large windows on three sides, ceiling
fan and access to the front and rear property.
The library showcases rich mahogany wood paneling with built-in
cabinets and shelves, deep crown moldings and a wood-burning
fireplace. Accenting the room is the turret, tucked in the corner with
mahogany built-ins.
Crossing the threshold, you are greeted by a grand entrance hall,
where the original herringbone parquet floor flows into the adjoining
rooms. Extensive architectural details include deep crown moldings
with rope trim, leaded glass windows, columns and a dramatic
turned staircase.
Across the foyer, the banquet size dining room is distinguished by
three sets of French doors opening out to the front terrace. A gas
fireplace brings warmth, while built-in cabinets, crown molding,
panel wainscoting and custom silk wall coverings add further
elegance. The original parquet floor, known as “a wooden carpet,”
is crafted from a rare and unique inlay of oak and Peruvian walnut.
The spacious country kitchen has all the elements needed to create
a wonderful meal. Features include a warm pegged hardwood floor,
ample cabinets and counter space, a Miele dishwasher, Sub-Zero
refrigerator, GE wall ovens, Thermador smooth top cooktop and
large windows. The kitchen has convenient access to a combination
laundry and powder room, a back staircase, and stairs to the lower
level with outside access at the landing.
Two steps down takes you to the front-to-back living room. In
this palatial room, the wood-burning fireplace takes center stage.
