The Round House, namesake of Roundhouse Road, was originally built in the 1850s. In 2018 this rare, octagonal property underwent a complete renovation, as featured in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. The aesthetics of the original architecture were masterfully preserved, while the fit and finishes were updated with modern materials and standards. The result is an incredibly unique property combining old world charm and new world comfort and durability. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is apparent as soon as you step onto the property. From the exterior you will see Hardie Plank siding and double pane windows. These choices were carefully selected to mimic the original design, while providing durability and energy efficiency. Stepping inside, you will be captured by the open concept of the main floor, which is punctuated by an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an enormous island just waiting for you to pull up a stool! If this open area is not enough, there is also an adjacent sunroom. A pantry, built-in shelves, built-in bookshelf, and "Harry Potter" closet offer abundant storage opportunities. Winding up the stairs to the second floor, your eyes will be drawn upward to admire the stunning, windowed cupola which floods the space with natural light. The primary bedroom is replete with a tastefully updated en suite bath and walk-in closet. The other two bedrooms on this level share a full hallway bath, also beautifully updated. The lower level, aside from a spacious laundry area and separate utility room, has two large finished spaces that can be used for any number of things, be it a wine cellar, office, gym, craft room, or whatever suits you! Just imagine yourself sitting on the wraparound porch, watching your guests overflowing from the house and spilling onto the sprawling lawn during a festive celebration, or sipping a beverage while you quietly contemplate a rainy evening. You will be writing the next chapter of this storied property.
