Spanning an impressive 5,500 square feet across three fully finished levels, this architectural masterpiece, named and historically landmarked, Cooper House, has been meticulously preserved and thoughtfully updated to offer the ultimate turnkey lifestyle. The moment you step inside, the home's historic integrity shines through its original quarter-sawn hardwood floors, 9 foot ceilings, spacious foyer (20x12) and beautifully preserved detailed woodwork. The foyer is stunning with a grand staircase with custom woodwork and a large landing with built-in benches and fabulous leaded-glass windows. You will absolutely love the built-in china cabinet with recessed lights off of the foyer.

Venture through the adjacent French doors to a beautiful sun room with a faux fireplace and extensive windows overlooking the property. This is the perfect 'quiet room' in this home. Around the corner is an updated powder room under the staircase and a cozy family room with a more casual vibe. Next, the heart of the home is a new, state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with commercial grade SS appliances, custom handmade cabinetry, quartz tops, two deep sinks both with disposals, upper cabinets with recessed lights and a butler's/coffee bar with a wine/beverage refrigerator. Up the grand staircase you will find yourself in the 2nd large foyer with built-in cabinets and drawers for storage. The second level features 5 spacious bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet with custom organizers, and a primary bath with a newer vanity with dual sinks and a custom separate shower. There are four additional bedrooms and a gorgeous updated full bath with dual sinks, a soaker tub with custom tile work and a private shower and toilet. Next, the third floor reveals a fabulous finished bonus room complete with soaring open beams, a pool table, dry bar, two TVs, a sectional & tables that all stay. Additionally, there is an updated full bathroom, creating the perfect private retreat for a guest suite, media room, or executive office. The roof was replaced in 2023, there are two hot water heaters, both replaced in the past 3 years, two sump pumps that were installed in 2021, and the electric service upgraded with a new main panel and new sub panel (2021), with an existing secondary panel. The HVAC system, which heats and cools the 1st floor was replaced in 2018 and the central air for the 2nd and 3rd levels was replaced in 2022. There are new solid wood storm windows that were installed in 2025. The 2.5 car garage has an interior staircase for easy, extra storage.
