This cozy, jewel-like Tudor Revival home was built in 1933 for the Froelich family, and reflects Mr. Froelich’s trade—he was a watchmaker and jeweler—as well as the Arts and Crafts movement in architecture. The charming turret foyer opens to the “great room”, which is surrounded by a sitting room, dining room, and kitchen. The second floor has 3 wonderfully decorated bedrooms, a bath, a sitting room, and an upporch. The current owners have transformed a screened summer room into a modern family room, which opens onto a perfectly matched stone patio. The patio looks out on a tree-lined yard, anchored by a newly completed “coach house”, that serves as a woodworking and gardening shed.
The owners have furnished the home to perfection with antiques collected over the years, diligently restored and preserved original features, and creatively added modern necessities that fit seamlessly with the house’s period style and scale.
