305 E Cecil Avenue

Description

THIS is definitely a one-of-a-kind, and it's for only one proud owner! Charming 1936 Colonial that boasts the combination of old world charm, farm house style, dove tailed nicely with modern appointments which created this beautiful home! As you pull in the driveway at 305 E. Cecil Avenue in North East, Maryland, you'll be welcomed by the original wrap around porch. This is a great place to sit with your coffee and greet the morning sun. As you step inside, the wow factor really takes over! The foyer is spacious and you immediately can scan the whole open floor plan. The foyer has an original built in bookcase that currently displays an old 1939 artifact found behind a wall in the bathroom during renovations. The living room has a cozy brick propane fireplace with an old wood mantlepiece. The distinguished wood beams were brought in from an amish barn and restored to make this floor plan pop with character! Throughout the main floor you'll find original hardwood flooring and 9'+ ceilings. The kitchen has 42" tall lighted cabinets, soft close drawers granite countertops & high end stainless steel appliances with gas cooking. The substantial island provides a central gathering place from all rooms. The wood surround base of the island was also utilized from the old amish barn. Off of the dining room and kitchen is a mud room with elevated ceilings and the wood planked walls came from the original garage on the property before it was removed. Off of the mudroom is a half bath with a stained glass window and a pocket door which was repurposed. You'll also find a spacious screened in back porch with elevated ceilings and it provides the best seats in the house to view the brilliant sunsets to close out your evenings. The second floor offers 3 bedrooms, each with their own uniqueness. One with a window seat, one with two large closets and one with a repurposed barn door closet. All of them provide ceiling fans and a dimmer switch. The modern bath offers a double sink vanity, separate tiled rain shower and claw foot tub. The large linen closet in the bathroom used to house the laundry but it was moved down to the basement, so you can reverse it back very easily if desired. No expense was spared on this home. It had all new: plumbing, heating and energy star cooling air conditioning, double paned insulated, low E windows, 50 yr. architectural shingled roof, programmable thermostats and much more. Complete with a large backyard! The owner recently replaced the entire water line from the house to the street, added a new shed and new gutters. The home is heated by energy efficient propane gas and has 2- 100 gallon tanks. If the owners could take this house to their next chapter of life.......they would! The convenience of being able to walk a couple of blocks to all the shops, restaurants, parades and events North East has to offer is just one of the many perks of this home and location.
