1589 Larch Street - Designed by the renowned Andrew Cobb, this beautifully restored and thoughtfully maintained home exudes understated elegance, warmth, and character. With over 3,000 square feet of living space, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a flexible floor plan designed to suit a variety of lifestyles. The main level features a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, seamlessly connected to a cozy den or formal dining area through classic French doors. The custom cherrywood kitchen opens into a bright and inviting great room, where large windows frame views of the private, ground-level deck and lush perennial gardens—offering a serene retreat in the summer months. A well-sized bedroom and full bath complete this floor, perfect for guests or main-floor living. Upstairs, a sun-drenched landing leads to the primary bedroom and two uniquely charming bedrooms, each with eye-catching architectural details and signature eyebrow windows—a nod to the home’s rich heritage. The lower level provides a versatile rec room ideal for children or teens, complete with wall-to-wall bookshelves, a half bath, utility room, and workshop. Abundant storage and generously sized closets—rare for a home of this vintage—add to the practicality of the space. A discreetly tucked-away shed adds further convenience without disrupting the home’s aesthetic appeal.
