Built in 1926 and thoughtfully reimagined over the past year, this brick Colonial Revival home pairs classic charm with a refined, art-forward modern aesthetic. Architectural enhancements—many designed to highlight the owners’ collection—include a reeded backsplash in the kitchen, a custom hallway window box displaying antique bronze urns, and a wall of antiqued mirrors reflecting bespoke “art doors” that conceal a kitchen storage closet. Subtle vertical framing in the formal living and dining rooms brings new balance and height to the original proportions.

The kitchen and adjacent dining nook anchor the main level, opening to a warm, inviting family room with soft textures and comfortable seating. A connected upper deck with generous sectional seating extends the living space outdoors. A moody, shimmering half bath adds a touch of drama nearby. 

Upstairs, guests will see the serene primary bath and the updated bath of the homeowners’ daughter, along with refreshed bedroom spaces that make clever use of scale and light.

A muted palette, natural textures, meaningful art, and carefully chosen antiques create a home that feels collected, calm, and deeply welcoming—an inviting Montford residence where historic character meets modern comfort.
