Welcome home to 100 Bellemore! This storybrook Norman Revival home is a landmark in the coveted neighborhood of The Orchards. Built in 1939, it has been lovingly maintained by the same family for the past 40 years. The iron strapped front door leads into a two story foyer featuring a curved staircase with wrought iron rails and striking mid-century pendant lights. To the right is the greatroom/living room with an expansive, east facing, bow window that brings in abundant light. Matching corner cupboards flank the window. This room is large enough to accommodate multiple seating areas. You will appreciate the recently installed gas fire logs on wintry nights. The floors throughout the house are oak and all the windows (with the exception of the bow) are Anderson wood replacements.
The dining room is amply sized and has an alcove for a side board and french doors that lead out to the back yard.
The kitchen is beautifully remodeled with custom cherry cabinets and granite counters. You won't believe the amount of built in pantry storage you will find behind the cabinet doors! A breakfast bar is incorporated into the island. The powder room opening off the hall beyond the kitchen features a matching cherry wood vanity.
On the second floor, the large primary bedroom also has a full bow window, a walk in closet and built in vanity. The updated primary bath has cherry finishes and a step in shower. Two other generously proportioned bedrooms share a jack and jill bath.
The wood panelled family room on the lower level has a woodburning fireplace (as is) . There is also another finished room for an office or whatever you need with an adjoining full bath.
The basement is dry and has an installed french drain.
Outside you will be enchanted by the stone patio with it's koi pond and fountain. Mature plantings surround the house. The two car garge plus a driveway will easily accomodate family cars and visitors. Beyond the driveway a stone stair leads up to an extra half lot that affords added privacy.
Modern updates with original charm are a winning combination in this lovely Orchards home that is awaiting its next chapter!
