Set on approximately .63 acres in historic Stanford Estates, once known as Millionaire Row, the home offers 2,739 square feet, five bedrooms and two and a half baths, along with the warmth, craftsmanship and individuality that are nearly impossible to recreate today. Inside, original newly refinished hardwood floors, wavy-glass windows, vintage doors, substantial millwork and an impressive fireplace preserve the home’s architectural character. The formal living and dining rooms feel gracious yet comfortable, while the updated kitchen brings modern function with quartz countertops, a gas range, subway tile backsplash, abundant cabinetry, pull-out pantry storage and a coffee bar.
