On a quiet South Hill street with its sidewalks and that small town allure, this home will warm your heart. Walk to coffee in the morning, the farmers market on Saturday, neighborhood parks and churches, or simply downhill to downtown Stillwater's shops, restaurants, and riverfront — all just blocks away. Inside, the original woodwork and charming cast-iron radiators speak to the craftsmanship of an earlier era. Throughout time all renovations were intended to refine not remove the embedded character. The kitchen is generous with period appropriate upper cabinets and woodwork detail. This exceptional space is anchored by a new Italian-made Bertazzoni induction range, quartz countertops, and in the adjoining eating area, a custom banquette that makes for extra comfortable meals together looking out over the garden-filled back yard - or a great place for homework and school projects when it’s not mealtime. There are two full bathrooms upstairs including a private primary bath with separate soaking tub, shower, a double sink vanity, and laundry – along with the convenient main floor powder room. All bathrooms, as well as the back entrance/mudroom, are warmed by in-floor heat. The current owners have invested thoughtfully in the home's future: a full 24-panel solar system, 17 new windows on both levels, a complete exterior restoration, a newer roof, and Hardie board siding on the garage. They also enclosed a porch which is now a much-loved three-season porch with skylights and a wood-burning Vermont Castings stove. Mini-splits (heat and A/C) complete a suite of upgrades that make this house as efficient as it is beautiful. Outside, perimeter gardens planted by a notable local nursery include pollinator beds, berries, asparagus, and rhubarb – along with raised beds for vegetable gardening and a brick fire pit – make the exterior as beautiful and welcoming as the interior. Homes that balance this much history with this much intention and beauty are a rare find.
