Own a piece of architectural history in this exquisite & expansive Colonial Revival, designed & built by celebrated local architect, Alice Washburn. From the Southern-exposed front, the home’s refined detailing is expressed through its dentil & keystone moldings, triple-arched Palladian window, & gabled, pediment entryway w/ fan light window, characteristic of Washburn’s unerring sense of style. Known also for implementing only the finest building materials & Scandinavian craftsmanship in her houses, this is a wonderful example of her clear vision for a truly tasteful home.Aside from the striking exterior curb appeal, including delightful perennials & mature trees & shrubs, the interior is filled w/ architectural treasures such as arched doorways, elegant millwork & built-ins, HW floors, & amazing natural light.2 exterior end-wall chimneys provide for 2 FPs in the home, 1 gas & 1 wood, which sit in the home office & the front-to-back LR respectively.Glass doors from the LR & the formal DR, w/ built-in hutch, lead to a rear patio, which is ideal for entertaining.The kitchen is generously-sized, as are all 5 BRs on the upper 2 levels, including the MBR which contains its own office & 1 of the 4 & a half BAs in the home.The 3rd floor contains 2 of the BRs w/ a small kitchenette & another of the full BAs which makes it an ideal au pair suite.This masterpiece sits on an open & level lot, on a tree-lined street w/ sidewalks, just a short walk to Hopkins School,& short drive to Yale
