This stately Dutch Colonial is drenched is area history and one of three Albertson homes located in Magnolia. The Albertson family's roots go back to the 17th century in when Magnolia was originally known as Greenland. Craftsmanship is truly the hallmark of this 18-room, 6 BR, 1.5 BA home that offers old fashioned space, charm, character. Set back off of West Evesham Rd and barely visible with century old trees you might miss the circular driveway when you come to visit. The inviting wrap-around front porch leads you to a side entrance to the sunny Parlor. The Parlor opens via two sets of original pocket doors to the formal Dining Room and Living Room. The Living Room exhibits an air of luxurious formality that is enhanced with exquisite crown molding details, custom mill work, corbels, wainscotings, pillars, a wood burning fireplace and turned staircase with two landings (note the three windows that travel up the staircase and the nook for decorating at the top section). Just off the Living Room is a pleasant little Reading Room. The formal Dining Room supports gracious entertaining with 10 ft ceilings and a stunning crystal chandelier. Two rooms off the Dining Room were originally intended as a Butler Pantry (with a separate stairway that leads to the Maid s quarters) and Breakfast Room leading to a country-style Eat-in Kitchen with brick non-working fireplace (there is an electric insert). There is a Powder Room and entrance to the Basement, as well as a wonderful 4-season Sun Room off the kitchen to relax with a good book and your favorite beverage. Travel up the staircase to an impressive 2nd floor with a wide hallway that includes a deep storage closet and stairway to the 3rd floor. The romantic Main Bedroom connects to an adjourning Dressing Room that connects to the 2nd Bedroom (former Maid's Quarters, now a sewing room) with its private staircase back to the Butler Pantry.
