Nestled on a picturesque 0.40-acre wooded lot and a half, this classic house at 1208 College Place invites you to experience the epitome of gracious living. This warm and inviting house was designed by a Boston Architect and featured as a Designer Showcase Home. As you enter through the front door, a grand foyer welcomes you with 10-foot ceilings, a majestic staircase, and a spacious landing adorned with window seats. The first floor beckons with a large dining room, a formal living room with a large masonry fireplace, a cozy den, an open kitchen featuring a second gas fireplace in the keeping room, an enclosed side porch with skylights, a generous laundry room, a bedroom with a full bathroom, an office/study, and a powder room. Throughout the first and second floors, intricate wainscoting, picture frame molding, and gleaming hardwood floors create an ambiance of refined luxury. The kitchen and sunroom were thoughtfully designed by B A Farrell. Ascending to the second floor, 9.5-foot ceilings set the stage for four expansive bedrooms, each bedroom has a private bathroom and office or flex room. The primary bedroom features a fireplace. Notably, one of the bedrooms houses a separate apartment, with its own kitchen and both inside and outside entrances, offering versatile living options, whether as a fourth bedroom, an inlaw suite, or a standalone apartment. The full attic, boasting 6.5-foot ceiling height, provides ample storage, including a cedar closet. The basement presents two distinct apartments, both with a strong rental history. Additionally, the property features two attractive outbuildings, one of which is large enough for a small vehicle. Don't miss the opportunity to make this remarkable residence your own, where every corner exudes a sense of timeless charm and modern comfort.
