1833 Montgomery Ave House

Estate-like stone pillars welcome you at the entryway of 1833 Montgomery, an extensively-renovated 4/5 BR 4 bath Cape-style home set far back from the road, on a lovely private acre screened by fencing and mature trees. At the end of the long... driveway you are greeted by a circular drive fronting an elegant 4,192 SF home with stone detailing and several convenient entrances. The main entry leads into a tastefully-appointed foyer with rich hardwood and white painted brick accents. This opens to a fabulous, functional gourmet kitchen styled with tiled floors, granite counters, a glass tile backsplash, Homecrest soft-close cabinetry, peninsula island seating and new high-end stainless appliances. A pass-through window assures seamless serving to the family/dining room where guests and loved ones can gather. A triple window, hardwood floors and decorative crown/chair rail moldings enhance the comfortable ambiance.
