About this home
Welcome to 701 W 20th St! A most striking Stone Detached home with stunning gardens & landscaping, private fenced yard, 2 parking spaces on one of THE BEST BLCKS in the HEART of the much-loved Triangle neighbored! Enter the elegant foyer with lovely transom and side windows to provide beautiful natural lighting. Note the details, such as crown molding, turned staircase, Period Trim Moldings, Hardware & Doors, solid oak hardwood flooring, replacement windows & insulated exterior doors (with storm doors). The spacious rooms flow naturally throughout the 1st floor, creating wonderful spaces for entertaining both inside & out to the open front porch & to the lovely gardens & Flagstone Patio! This home features a 1st Floor Primary En-Suite with a Heated Floor, 2 well illuminated closets, built in storage nooks and a Walk-In Tiled Shower in the handsomely updated En-Suite Bathroom. (This private en-suite bedroom could serve as a family room, home theater or office if one of the 4 rooms upstairs would be preferred as the primary Bedroom.) The Classic Formal Dining Room is quite a showstopper with more crown molding, the lovely original fireplace, (currently considered decorative.) along with an illumined china closet. The 2 access doorways create easy flow to and from the foyer & the spacious well-appointed kitchen, where you will find stainless steel appliances, 5 burner gas range, lots of granite countertop space, under counter lighting & a charming breakfast nook with built-ins. More building storage under the Peninsula dining counter. Easy access from the kitchen via the re-built back steps to the marvelous gardens & patio! Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms featuring ceiling fans, and good closet space along with a fantastic family room featuring a gas fireplace. This formerly was thought to be two bedrooms that was converted into one large room that could serve as a bedroom if preferred, the hall bath is in keeping with the original style but has been subsequently updated to include tile flooring, tiled tub/shower surround & a pedestal sink. More built-in shelving adds extra storage on the 3rd floor. You will find a very spacious room with very high ceiling and bookshelves built in on both ends along with a walk-in closet in the basement. There’s lots more storage area with many shelving units that are included along with the laundry area. The outside side entrance to the garage helps with bringing tools & storage items easy. The radiator heat provides a lovely evening, consistent heat throughout the cold months without blowing dust throughout the home. The 5 very efficient mini-splits also provide specific heat where preferred and serve as the central air conditioning system for the home. A new architectural roof was just installed by Wertz and comes with a transferable warranty. Additional roofs over the front porch, back bump out are rubber and we’re reviewed by Wertz as well and are in very good condition. The flat roof on the 1st floor en-suite Bed & Bath was also reviewed with no repairs or coating deemed as needed. (Be sure to see the extensive upgrades list & floor plans for more info.)
