Historical significance meets rare walkability. The Justice House, a remarkable turn-of-the-century Victorian home, was completely renovated and expanded in 2013 by Fine Homes Inc. At that time, the expansive two-car detached garage, with a two-bedroom apartment, was also added to the property. This wonderful four bedroom, three full bath home sits on a 0.62 acre, heavily landscaped lot, just a few blocks from village center and one block from Davidson Elementary School. During the renovation, all new energy efficient windows were installed, the insulation was improved, the electrical system was replaced, and the home was brought up to modern standards while paying homage to its historic roots. The rear part of the home, overlooking the woods, is bathed in natural light from additional windows, doors and skylights that were part of the new addition. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with custom cabinetry and includes an ample walk-through pantry with floor-to-ceiling shelving that provides out of sight valuable extra storage. The original hardwood flooring was revived and then matched where space was added. The owner's retreat, on the main level, consists of a sitting room, bedroom, spacious bath, and double walk-in closets with custom designed closet system. The upper bedrooms all have unique features such as bay windows with window seats, built-in drawers etc. While touring the second floor, don't miss the walk in storage room off of the main hallway and the game room that is built into the turret.
