Welcome to Pelham Heights, where your new home in the comfort and security of the suburbs awaits. Just a quick walk to the train, town and all Pelham public schools, this handsome brick colonial evokes the feeling of a well-maintained English country home that preserves the beauty and character of the original construction with the upgraded amenities of modern comfort. Preserved original details include the custom, arched entrance door; spectacular curved staircase to the second floor; diamond-shaped leaded glass bay windows on the first floor, and casement windows throughout. Modern amenities include the huge double living room with a large fireplace, a serious chef's kitchen with breakfast bar (and convenient doggie door), and a bright sunroom that is warm and sunny all day. The primary bedroom suite is a private retreat to luxuriate in, with a newly renovated bathroom and extra roomy shower. The other two bedrooms on this floor both have ensuite baths. With 5 bedrooms, 4½ baths, and plenty of closets, there is ample room for everyone in the family including guests, and visiting friends, and comfortable live-in nanny or au-pair accommodations on the third floor. Or, use that space as home offices. The huge 451 sf basement is perfect for a kid-friendly playroom, home gym, even more storage, and a large laundry room, none of which is included in the 3,360 sf quoted! Central air and natural gas heat throughout provide year-round comfort. The outside property includes a tidy, flat fenced-in yard for playing, a garden plot for growing fruits and vegetables, a wrap-around patio for grilling, and established perennial semi-native gardens to provide 3 seasons of beauty without much work. A brilliant choice! Additional Information: ParkingFeatures:1 Car Detached,
