Few homes balance old and new like this classic 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Dutch Colonial. The house has been lovingly maintained for over a century, preserving original details like natural woodwork, a beautiful stained glass window, and charming built-in cabinets. It has also been updated with an expansive first-floor mudroom, laundry center, and a spa-like, renovated bathroom. Enter through a welcoming foyer into a large living room that flows into a sun-filled porch. The dining room, with its beautiful wainscoting and two built-in corner cabinets, opens to a kitchen with cherry cupboards, a new GE Cafe induction stove, and new Bosch dishwasher. Beyond the dining room, a spacious family room with a striking spiral staircase leads to a full suite with a 4th bedroom or office and 1/2 bath. Just beyond, tucked behind newly installed pocket doors, is a mudroom with its own back entrance. A rare find for this era! Originally designed as an in-law suite, it can easily be converted back. A cozy powder room rounds out the floor. Upstairs are three large bedrooms, including a primary, spacious enough for a seating area or office. Original doors and a built-in linen closet showcase the home's woodwork, still beautiful after a century. The full bath was remodeled to the studs, with a large walk-in shower, teak wood vanity, brass fixtures, and beautiful white tile. A full third-level attic offers tons of clean, dry storage. Outside, the backyard feels like a private retreat surrounded by trees. A beautiful new two-level paver patio offers plenty of room for seating, perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. Other extensive improvements include a new furnace, central AC, and hot water heater, new roof, new garage roof, plaster repairs on walls on ceilings, interior paint, exterior paint, updated electric in the garage and rear addition, and new windows in the sun room and family room. Ideally located in the highly sought-after Meadowbrook neighborhood, this home is just minutes from Syracuse University, hospitals, and businesses. The neighborhood has tree-lined streets, a true sense of community, and the perfect balance of convenience and quiet, residential living.
