Property Description

After four decades of prideful ownership, this magnificent Palmer Woods Tudor is ready for new caretakers. Replete with amazing woodwork, leaded and stained glass, intricate plasterwork and valuable art tile throughout, this home is truly one of the neighborhood's gems! Beyond the slate roof and three-car attached garage, the home boasts a special in-law/au pair apartment with separate walk-up entrance. In the large, bright living room is a limestone fireplace with art-tiled hearth and elaborate crown molding. The library is richly paneled in dark oak with wide plank pegged-oak flooring, a fabulous marble-surround fireplace, bas-relief ceiling and custom stained glass windows. The formal dining room boasts more elaborate plaster work in the crown & ceiling. Beyond the dining room is the gigantic great room with parquet oak flooring and a beautiful marble surround fireplace -- as well as a walk-out to the professionally landscaped rear grounds with a koi pond. Upstairs are four gracious bedrooms, primary with private art tiled bath as well as a second bedroom with a private en-suite art tiled bathroom. The two additional main bedrooms share a central, dual-entry bathroom -- also finished with original art tiling. Beyond the stairway to the huge, mostly unfinished third floor at the back of the second floor is the entrance to the 4 room "In-law" or Au Pair apartment. There is a full bathroom, a kitchenette, a sitting room and a bedroom. With egress via an outside stairway, this apartment offers complete privacy, if desired. Beautiful grounds and gardens and an ideal location in the neighborhood help make this outstanding home particularly desirable.
