Description
773 Island Rd is one of those rare houses that people discover, settle into, & easily transition through life’s stages. Built in 1912 with a practical & nuanced floor plan, it sits at the rise of the street on a corner lot to the treed right-of-way. Surrounded by greenery & irrigated low-maintenance gardens, it’s a joyous house in a magical setting. A welcoming foyer embraces all who enter. A bright living room with gas fireplace & stunning stained glass hosts gatherings as easily as it offers quiet spaces. Hardwood floors carry you to a dine-in kitchen, serving the memorable meals and moments that warm and inviting kitchens make possible. The dining room, with its fine details, supports entertaining large groups, family meals, or having a contemplative moment at any part of the day. An office appropriate to our work-at-home times that looks over the back garden, and a laundry and mud room, complete the first floor.Skilled work by Goodison Construction in 2016 saw a full upgrade of the lower level. New plumbing, electrical, heating, roof, rebuilt chimneys, and on-demand hot water deliver peace of mind and reflect a home that can be immediately lived in, with affordable heating, electrical, and water services. A thoughtful layout on the upper floor sees three bedrooms and a central bath fully rebuilt by Decora Tile. It’s a timeless design that offers space for family needs, and access to the large attic storage space. Downstairs, a wired media room and another full bath in a layout that has been future-proofed to serve as a fourth bedroom, or a separate-entrance space for guests or caregivers. A finished attached garage and separate utility room make key functions accessible. Perfectly located, modernized, turnkey examples of craftsmanship are rare. As is an adjacent ‘secret-garden’ giving city living a country-lane feel. 773 Island is a house for all parts of the day, all seasons, and all stages of life — and it’s now ready for you to call “home” (id:48970) Show More
