Step into a rare piece of living history where craftsmanship and luxury are perfectly executed. This stunning 5 bedroom, 2 full and 2 half bath residence has been meticulously restored to preserve its architectural heritage without sacrificing modern comfort, including dual-zone central air conditioning. From the moment you enter, the home’s grand turned staircase, intricate crown molding, and historically accurate custom millwork make an immediate impression. Rich longboard white oak hardwood floors, accented with mahogany inlays and herringbone patterns, flow throughout the residence, adding warmth and sophistication. At the heart of the home is a state-of-the-art gourmet kitchen designed for entertaining. Anchored by an expansive center island with soapstone countertops, the space is appointed with a 6-burner Wolf gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, under cabinet wine refrigerator, a bar with a custom fabricated brass countertop, and a built-in Scotsman ice maker. The second level offers two spacious bedrooms, including a primary with an adjoining room currently used as an oversized walk-in closet and dressing room, a shared hall bath, and an additional living area with a large balcony that is centered around a remarkable fireplace surround featuring English hand-painted tiles inspired by Lewis Carroll’s home in Oxford. The third level includes three additional bedrooms, a home office, and another shared hall bath, providing exceptional flexibility and comfort for guests or family. The lower level is a full, dry basement with soaring 8 foot ceilings, original timbers, and stained concrete floors offering versatility. Currently serving as an additional living area, home gym, and abundant storage space, the lower level is as functional as it is beautiful. Outside, the home’s green slate roof, accented with copper detailing, crowns this architectural treasure with distinction. An inviting front porch welcomes quiet mornings and lively evenings, all nestled within the vibrant and sought after community of Cool Spring, with walkability to Trolley Square, convenience to the city, and easy access to I-95. Complete with convenient off-street parking, this extraordinary residence presents a rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Delaware history.
