Even on a block of distinguished 19th Century houses, 2715 E. Grace St. is a standout with its intricately detailed cast iron veranda. Step inside to an impressive alcove off the front hall, a commanding staircase, and rear door at the end of the entrance hall opening to a double porch overlooking the garden and gazebo.Lovingly preserved vintage details are everywhere in this three-room, 2.5 bath, 3,158 SF house built in 1879. It has high ceilings, large windows, and original pine floors, doors, and mouldings. The rooms flow organically. Off the entrance hall are the living room and dining room. To the rear, several rooms were combined to create a stunning gourmet kitchen with an Aga range and other high-end appliances, a window seat overlooking the garden, a breakfast area with stained glass, and family room with fireplace and wet bar. Off the family room is a half bath and spacious side porch overlooking the garden.The second floor has three bedrooms, and two full baths, including a primary suite overlooking the rear garden. The primary bedroom suite with walk-in closet is connected to the rest of the second floor through an enclosed side porch offering space for a variety of uses, including a library. One end of this porch was left open creating a private balcony overlooking the garden. Because the lot is unusually wide -- 42.5' -- the garden and its brick terrace function as an outdoor living room. Idyllically framed with graceful trees and mature plantings, the rear garden could be mistaken for a 19th C. landscape painting. Potential for off-street parking and garden parties. There is a 13.5' X 14' basement work room and outside it a small storage area, both entered under the side porch.(Three HVAC units, one less than 10 yrs old, two less than five yrs old; AGA kitchen appliances, front & rear garden irrigation; whole house water filtration system; updated bathroom cabinetry; roof about 5 yrs old; recent radon testing with no remediation recommended).
