Listing Notes

Welcome to 12-40 Beech Court, a classic Dutch Colonial with the kind of character, scale, and architectural detail that is nearly impossible to find in new construction. With over 2,200 square feet of living space spread across multiple levels, this home offers a layout that is as generous as it is versatile, and it is ready for its next chapter. The first floor sets the tone immediately. A gracious foyer with beadboard wainscoting and a crystal chandelier opens to a spacious living room anchored by French doors that flood the space with natural light and connect seamlessly to a sun-drenched screened-in porch. The porch itself is a standout, with a natural wood tongue-and-groove ceiling, wraparound windows, and enough room to serve as a true extension of the home's living and entertaining space in every season. The formal dining room is equally impressive, with crown molding, a chandelier, and generous proportions that can easily accommodate large gatherings. Beyond the dining room, a charming breakfast nook features its own wood-paneled ceiling and diamond-pane windows, flowing through an arched doorway into the eat-in kitchen. The second floor is home to three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with multiple windows and rich hardwood floors. A full bathroom and a second-floor landing with a natural wood beadboard ceiling and its own crystal chandelier add to the sense of craftsmanship and care that runs throughout the home. The third floor offers additional flexible living space with hardwood floors and classic dormer architecture, well suited for use as a home office, creative studio, or private retreat. Below grade, the basement provides a large recreation room, a dedicated laundry area, utility space, a full bathroom, and ample storage, adding meaningful square footage and functionality to an already generous floor plan. While the home is being sold in its current condition and does present an opportunity to renovate and update to personal taste, the underlying bones, layout, and craftsmanship are the kind of qualities that cannot be replicated. This is a home with true architectural character, generous living space on every level, and the kind of potential that makes it a rare find. Do not miss the opportunity to see it for yourself.
