Description
A rare opportunity to purchase a one-of-a-kind historic home with all the amenities of a newer house in a positively scenic and serene section of Skillman. A visionary architect combined two 19th century homes in 2004 into one large and lovely house set upon three acres and then further improvements were undertaken including a renovated hickory kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, three and a half updated bathrooms with rich tile and granite finishes, and newer (2016) Marvin double hung windows throughout. Glossy wide board flooring and beamed ceilings showcase this home's period detail in large, versatile rooms. The dining and living rooms align a serene columned porch with views out over sweeping lawn and flowering trees, making it the perfect trio of entertaining spaces. The breakfast room, family room with one of two fireplaces, home office, and den cater to everyday life. Upstairs, the spacious main bedroom suite features a dressing closet and luxury bathroom. A second bedroom also has its own bathroom while the others, in a wing of their own with a playroom or second family room, share the third bathroom. Laundry and a charming homework or hobby nook round out this floor. The patio, bocce court, storage shed, and large potting shed are perfect for outdoor lovers while the detached three-car garage with a finished loft above is perfect for a second home office, hobby or "hang out" space. A beautiful blend of modernity and timeless charm.
