Restored to its former glory and then some, this distinguished 1908-built Historic West End home is on the National Register of Historic Places and has been cast in various tv shows and movies. With careful restoration to the original wood stairs, trim, pocket doors, stained glass windows, and refinished hardwood floors, this entire character home has been re-imagined as modern luxury. At 3358 sq ft – larger than most properties in the area – it also has the unique feature of an income-producing 497 sq ft carriage house and a 2 car garage. Even more important is the fact that the annual property taxes are frozen at $662 until 2028. A special sitting room with incredible light greets you upon entering, with an an office/den with rolling library ladder to your left. Next is the formal dining room, which features one of several original decorative fireplaces. At the back of the home, you’ll find a stunning two-toned kitchen with vaulted ceilings, thoughtfully laid out and outfitted with stainless steel appliances. Sit at the island for quick meals, settle into the breakfast nook, and prepare a drink or coffee in the matching wet bar area. This main level also includes a convenient guest bedroom and bathroom outfitted with original clawfoot tub/shower as well as an additional full bathroom perfect for overflow of guest.
Step up the grand staircase and sit for a quiet moment on the landing’s reading nook. Upstairs, the showstopping primary suite features multiple walk-in closets and private bathroom centered around an oversized fireplace-facing clawfoot tub, charming dressing bench, detached double vanities, and custom dual shower enclosed in glass. Each of the other spacious bedrooms can be flexibly styled to suit your lifestyle, and one more main bath is found on the second floor.Outdoor spaces are abound as there are four separate outdoor lounging areas. The quintessential southern craftsman style front porch and swings are the anchor of all of the outdoor spaces. There is also a covered side deck, an upper back deck connecting the main home with the 2-car garage and ADU and the perfect back porch that serves as an extension of the kitchen.
The ADU was expertly designed to maximize livability, the unit is large enough for a king bed and a roomy bathroom. The kitchen uses space efficiently with a built-in toaster oven, full-size fridge, and delightful banquette seating area. Opt to rent out the carriage house, use it to accommodate changing family needs, or adapt the space for personal hobbies or interests.This area has many perks!
