The Christopher H. Drowne House is an elegant Greek Revival originally built in 1862 on College Hill that has been thoroughly updated for 21st-century living. Approach the side entry and step into the impressive front hall where a stunning staircase with a carved wood banister, crown molding, and warm hardwood floors set the tone. To the left, a coffered ceiling adds style and unifies the beautiful open plan living, dining, and kitchen. Oversized windows flood this engaging hub with pleasing sunlight. The stunning cook’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, top-quality appliances, and a stone-topped center island completes the perfect backdrop for daily living and gracious entertaining. A recently added half bath and mudroom complete the main level. Upstairs, on the second floor, is the sumptuous owner’s suite offering a spacious walk-in closet and a spa bath with a dual-sink vanity and a glass-enclosed shower. A generous second bedroom and a chic full bath complete this level. Continue up to the third floor to find two additional bedrooms, one with an adjoining bath with a soaking tub with views of the city scape, and a study. Finally, travel down to a private, fireplaced garden-level apartment that provides a separate living space for extended family or income generating opportunities. Dedicated off-street parking and a walkable neighborhood make for the ultimate in city living. An easy stroll to the train, universities and Downtown. A wonderful place to call home!
