Property Description
Rich in tradition! This solid brick, Georgian-style home sits on 3.5 acres and boasts a stellar view of Silver Lake in Olde Dover. The house was built in 1936 for Harry A. Richardson by Rupert Construction Co., one of the premier custom home builders in America at the time.
Inside, the house is filled with intricate details and custom finishes. The first floor features 10-foot ceilings, oak flooring, and an impressive center hall stairway leading to the upper levels. The grand foyer showcases the stately staircase and Americana-themed, Zubar hand-painted French wallpaper. The foyer leads to a large living room, a formal dining room, and a den that all include large windows, crown molding, and fireplaces. The fireplaces are all ornate, and the paneling throughout the house is extensive. The eat-in kitchen includes a pantry and a back porch that doubles as a breakfast area.
The main bedroom has a fireplace and full bath, and there are three more bedrooms and two full baths on the second floor; the third floor has two more bedrooms and a full bath as well as a large cedar closet with storage. The rooms over the attached three-bay garage are currently used for storage. All the bedrooms are spacious with large windows.
The full basement has a paneled entertainment room with a fireplace and a wet bar. It includes a storage room with substantial shelving, mechanical systems, and two other rooms. One can access the basement from the inside stairs or outside stairs.
The all brick patio outside is accommodating and offers impressive and unique views. The large lot features well-established trees that offer shade and privacy. The landscaping adds to the beautiful setting. The house is accessed by a tree-lined driveway. And all of this sits in privacy on 3.5 acres with beautiful views of Silver Lake.
