Built in 1874, this gracious Italianate residence is one of Stratford's most cherished addresses - a true "chocolate box" house on tree-lined Shrewsbury Street, where the architecture tells the story of the city itself. The original yellow brick, wide bracketed cornice, canted bay window, and columned entrance portico speak to craftsmanship built to endure. Inside, 10.6 ft. ceilings and 14-inch original baseboards on the main level set a tone of quiet grandeur. The formal living room, with its gas fireplace and large bay window, includes two additional windows that flood the space with natural light. The bay window overlooks the private garden and patio. The dining room is dressed with a spectacular original plaster ceiling medallion, antique chandelier, and bay window with crown moulding. A sun-filled morning room with custom twin bookshelves, wainscoting, and a window box connects seamlessly through. The renovated kitchen offers soapstone countertops, a large walk-in pantry, and a garden door to the private patio. Upstairs offers 9.4-ft ceilings and a primary bedroom with a gas fireplace and a 3-piece ensuite with heated floors and a glass shower with rainhead and multi-jets. Two additional bedrooms, an art studio with a glass entry, and an updated main bath completed renovated main bath with a vintage pedestal sink, large walk-in shower, and heated floors. A private loft features wideplank pine floors, exposed beam ceilings, and wall-to-wall built-in shelving. Original hardwood throughout. Stained glass artworks by the current owner are included. Two-car garage, potting shed, garden shed, 50-year composite shingles, updated electrical, plumbing, and insulation. Perennial gardens and mature trees create a sanctuary of rare privacy. A variety of mature flowering trees adds to the outdoor beauty of the property.
