Positioned on two acres and built in 1888, we give you a sneak peek into one of the original Dunham family homes. This lovely Victorian home has been lovingly and thoughtfully restored. The charm and character that one looks for in a historic home remains, but the best part is that the work has been done for you. The time, the labor, the meticulous attention to detail and the endless decisions made, give you the opportunity to walk in and enjoy the beautiful finished product. The history makes this incredibly special, and when you schedule your showing with the listing agent, you'll hear the history and feel the warmth and character, while you're able to enjoy the modern touches. For example, the smart home is set up for tvs, Lutron, and a Sonos system for sound through ceiling speakers. There are beautiful built-ins, Visual Comfort lighting, incredible Farrow & Ball wallcovering, custom- silk motorized shades in the primary bedroom, and custom shutters and blinds throughout, which still allow light to shine through the beautiful windows - some of which are the original stained glass. The beautiful and intricate original maple floors are breathtaking, as is the original and restored staircase. There's a billiards room, a beautiful, paneled library with a large half bath, and the four seasons room offers gorgeous views and more than ample space for entertaining. The flow in this historic home is incredible and unusual to find. The dining room is incredibly special and can seat up to 16 friends and family. The beautiful wallcovering evokes the equestrian lifestyle of the Village of Wayne and you'll appreciate the treatment that gives it a beautiful patina. The home boasts seven fireplaces, eight bedrooms, or six bedrooms with adjoining living room suites. Five of the six-bedroom suites also have their own ensuite bathrooms. You'll find a brand-new laundry area with gas connection, just off the kitchen. The back stairs are off kitchen, as well as the basement/cellar entrance. The patio/pergola/outdoor kitchen and new stairs at pub door and front are over $200k in hardscape alone. A new fence surrounds the back lawn and blends seamlessly into the landscape. Electrical updates and air conditioning are also large, and noteworthy, upgrades and you may choose to run heat through the space-pack if you'd rather abandon the beautiful (and super-efficient) charm of the original radiators throughout. This is a historic home, after all! The home is designer-appointed and is being offered furnished. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of history.
