Perched on an acre high above Carnegie Lake, with deep lawns in front and back, this brick beauty approaches its centennial year with all its original grace and grandeur intact. While creature comforts - like high-velocity A/C, renovated baths with radiant heat and a 3-car garage - meet modern demands, historical photos show that, aesthetically, the house is remarkably unchanged. With leaded glass framing the entry, arched doorways introducing the formal rooms and a wide staircase worthy of an old Hollywood movie, the foyer makes a jaw-dropping first impression. French doors separate the living room and family room, both with fireplaces. In the dining room, more french doors open to a glorious sunroom where stone is a practical alternative to the hardwood floors found elsewhere. In the kitchen, a pro-level range joins a furniture-style island and an original china hutch. Don't dare bypass the basement stairs! To everyone's delight, a prohibition-era bar paneled in wood awaits for your next party, complete with banquette seating, a decorative fireplace and a powder room brimming with vintage flair. No matter how late the evening goes, you'll always wake to the rejuvenating sight of glistening lake views from the main suite, where a deck, a bathroom done in luminous natural stone and 2 walk-in closets leave nothing to want. Past a sun-splashed landing, 2 more bedrooms share a vibrantly tiled bath. A third bath, as tastefully renovated as the rest, serves 2 more dreamy bedrooms on the third floor complete with cedar closet.
