Description

The year was 1958, long before many of today’s homebuyers were but a twinkle in someone’s eye, when Ladies Home Journal was publishing articles on casseroles, hosiery, detergents…and HOMES!!! Did you know that the Ladies Home Journal began publishing house plans in 1895? And the Journal Portfolio House at 2901 Street Road, just a two minute drive northwest of Peddler’s Village, has all of the elements as originally intended; a Portfolio House has to be “tried, true and ready to stand the test of time” and this home on 1.49 acres definitely meets those original standards of quality. Add to this a home filled with warmth (living room wood-burning fireplace), convenience (3 main level bedrooms with another 2 on the upper level), and ambience (secluded terrace views and beyond to the expansive rear yard viewed from the spacious living room’s bow window). Brick paved entry paths leading to front and rear terraces that are both utilitarian and enduring and hint at the many features of livability found within the home. An enclosed breezeway marries the two-car/two-story garage to the residence with strategic entry directly into the kitchen. A dining room adjoins the kitchen with spacious storage closets to hold an entire stock of partyware and linens. Just beyond is the front entry, a welcoming two-story, light-filled space that will lead guests directly to the large living room that visually extends into the garden party terrace/patio and very private views of a level backyard. Discreetly tucked into the wood paneled wall surrounding the wood-burning fireplace are game cabinets – how fun! Unheard of anywhere in today’s homes are the three, yes three, main level bedrooms accompanied by one full bath and one half bath. On the upper level two bedrooms are supported by another full bath and all rooms are sun-dappled benefiting from skylights in each. Floored storage areas discreetly follow the upper level of the home in each of the bedrooms. And for further storage, a full dry basement recently enhanced by a professionally installed waterproofing system including french drain is a welcome addition of usable, utilitarian space. Other practical, functional improvements and installations to the home over the years by its current stewards include heating system (2007), new roof (2010), replacement of windows and siding (2011), new driveway and new garage doors/openers (2017), and a portable generator. Pride in ownership is evident throughout this welcoming property and you will certainly feel the love and care invested as soon as you enter the space.
