169 Stratford Rd

The best of the past merges with the high-style present in this perfectly proportioned 6 bedroom, 2 full and 2 half baths, shingle and stucco charmer. The front porch, the barbecue-ready recently restored rear deck, and landscaped backyard offer plenty of al fresco dining and outdoor fun options for spring, summer and fall entertaining. A gracious entry foyer, large living room, elegant dining room with original oak wainscoting and butler's pantry, a sunny study/reading room, a half bath, and a sleek well-designed kitchen make up the first floor.

The kitchen is a marvel with top-of-the-line Miele, Wolfe, and Sub-Zero appliances, Caesarstone counters, radiant heated floor, custom cabinets and a bright built-in breakfast booth that just begs for coffee and pancakes! This floor is also cooled by a Mitsubishi split system A/C. Down in the surprisingly sunny finished basement is plenty of room for romping, gaming, laundry (with a brand new high efficiency washing machine) and storage, but the show-stopper is a 900-bottle temperature controlled wine cellar.

Above the parlor floor are four bedrooms on the second floor including a master with a walk-in closet, a polished second full bath off the landing, and custom closets galore. On the third floor are two additional bedrooms perfect when you have a houseful or as a separate guest suite. Move right in and let your modern life thrive alongside the original millwork and period flourishes of this perfectly balanced and beautifully upgraded home. The coffee is already brewing!
