Single Family Residence in Chesterfield

Open Sat 11/14, 1-3pm and Sun 11/15, 12-2pm. The two-story columned porch gives this brick Colonial real presence from the street. Inside, it’s been renovated top to bottom, with hardwood and tile throughout. It’s ready the day you get the keys.

The kitchen is where this house comes together. It has white cabinetry, granite, stainless appliances, a butler’s pantry and a long island that naturally becomes the place everyone lands. The breakfast room next to it has a dry bar and wine cooler and opens to the deck. The family room flows right in, with a wood-burning masonry fireplace and peg-and-plank hardwood floors. It all works as one connected space, so whoever’s cooking is never off in another room.

The front of the house is quieter by design. French doors close off the library, where floor-to-ceiling built-ins make it a real place to work, read or get away. The dining room sits across the hall for holidays and bigger dinners.

Upstairs, the primary suite is set apart from the rest. The bath has a double vanity and a walk-in glass shower, and the 11x11 closet works like a dressing room, with custom built-ins, an island and a chandelier. The four other bedrooms share two full hall baths, and the laundry is on this floor too, right where the clothes are.

The finished lower level gives everyone room to spread out. It has a kitchenette, a half bath and space for a rec room, gym or guest quarters, plus a walk-out to the patio and the partially fenced yard. The flat half-acre corner lot backs to trees and has plenty of room to use. The rear-entry garage keeps the front clean.
