    What's special

    This resplendent Queen Anne Victorian home is not to be missed! Starting with the stunning curb appeal and fabulous grounds, the interior is equally as impressive. The house was commissioned by John Graham in 1895 and named Maerex after two family members. With 5 Bedrooms, and 3~ baths, and 4000SF of living space, this house truly has it all. There are charming, intricate details and architectural interest at every turn. As you walk through the lovely circular gardens and up the front steps to the covered porch, enter into an enclosed entryway with original subway tile, and into a grand foyer. The gleaming, oak hardwood floors on the first level are original, and have been completely refinished. The Foyer has a wood-burning fireplace and beautiful wood lattice work on the windows. To the right is the formal Living Room, with a second wood-burning fireplace with brick surround. A door from the Living Room leads to a spacious screened-in porch ? perfect for entertaining! To the left of the Foyer is the formal Dining Room, with a fabulous chandelier, wainscoting and tons of windows to let in an abundance of natural light. The eat-in Kitchen is huge, with ceramic tile floors with radiant heat, granite countertops, and maple cabinets. The stainless-steel appliances include a Bosch gas range, Kitchen Aid oven, and Dacor refrigerator. A powder room with gold Carrera marble completes the first floor. Up the grand wooden staircase, there is a lovely bay window on the landing, and the second floor has 3 very large Bedrooms, all with generous closets and hardwood floors. Two of the Bedrooms share a completely renovated Jack & Jill Bath, with Restoration Hardware vanity with marble countertop and large walk-in shower with lovely tilework. There is a second sensational full Bathroom and Hangout room on this floor, and a back staircase that leads to the Kitchen. The third floor houses a fabulous Master Suite with all the amenities, starting with a huge Bedroom with skylights and beams across the vaulted ceiling. The many windows show off the tree-top views and lush backyard. There is a full, luxurious Bathroom, a sitting or exercise room and a huge area which serves as a closet. Finally, throughout the home, there are stunning light fixtures and charming curved ceilings. A new roof (Certainteed asphalt shingles) was installed in 2015, a new 75-gallon hot water heater, and new Anderson windows w/screens on many windows. There is an oversized 2-car attached garage.
