Get Cozy In This Too Perfect Tudor On Merrimac

Look at this picture-perfect little Tudor with the sloped roof and arched door and trees! It’s adorable and it’s in a Conservation District so basically by law, it has to stay that way. Real quick let’s talk about how it came to be this adorable. Besides the original construction which did a lot of heavy lifting on the outside…

First, that door. It has a stained glass inset! And inside. Whoa. It’s so crisp and clean. 

The current owners purchased this house from Ebby Halliday’s Kay Weeks over five years ago. Then they got to work. They removed walls, opened it up, and gave it a fantastic flow. The arched wall bridging the dining room to the living area? That was all them. 

Weeks said back then, the garage left a little something to be desired. It’s since been rebuilt entirely with a mix of brick and siding. They repoured a new driveway, too. 

Over the door to the garage, there’s an architectural element that not only looks fantastic, it provides shade from the sun and refuge from the rain, too. It’s repeated over the door into the kitchen as well. 

Not to mention that gorgeous covered patio. It basically adds to your living space and pulls the party outside. 

But when you do head back in, everything feels fresh. The paint is light and yet somehow warm. This house is so cozy and inviting. You can tell just by looking at it. 

This is one of those houses that just can’t miss. Every detail is perfect — the light fixtures, the cabinets, the paint colors. Plus hello, penny tile and a three-quarter wainscotting? It’s all just so dang lovely we’re gushing. 

And we’re not the only ones. Weeks said at the previous open house not one, but two former owners stopped by to take a stroll down memory lane. It’s not a home you soon forget. Also fun to note? Both previous owners still live in the neighborhood. Hey, when you find your place, you find your place. And there’s no reason to leave. Weeks currently has 5323 Merrimac listed at $659,000. It has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,609 square feet. Plus a gloriously well-manicured backyard. OKAY, THAT’S ALL THE GUSHING. I promise
