About this home
JUST WOW! This standout home in the historic McKinley District has been meticulously reimagined and fully renovated top to bottom, with attention to detail and pride of ownership evident in every way. The craftsmanship far surpasses the asking. Positioned on a corner lot at the top of a tree-lined street, this historic home makes a lasting first impression. With professional landscaping, the curb appeal is stunning—hundreds of plantings carefully designed by Dyck Arboretum, for year-round beauty. Inside, the charm is exquisitely preserved, while modern architect-designed updates ensure lasting stability. Details like restored picture railings, rejuvenated woodwork throughout and a thoughtful use of space, set this home apart. The kitchen is a dream—with an embossed ceiling, Corian counter tops and top-of-the-line appliances, including a gas range, all housed in custom built cabinetry. With an accessibility rarely seen in homes of this era, the main floor features a nice sized bedroom and a bath with a zero-entry shower. Beyond the formal dining and living rooms, a cozy den or office behind pocket doors offers flexibility. The floor plan flows effortlessly, with a rebuilt and widened staircase adding comfort and a feeling that's warm, not fragile. Upstairs, find a spacious bathroom and two bedrooms with walk-in closets and new wood floors that replicate the original. Master features a split system heat pump, cedar lined closet and fantastic built-ins. In addition to the heat pump, the supplementing cooling unit remains ensure comfort year-round. With a new foundation poured under the garage, this historic structure is now set to last another hundred years. Additionally, the basement has received regular maintenance and care, providing confidence in the time-tested foundation. A 50-year Owens Corning roof, updated systems including plumbing and electric, and a backup generator provide lasting peace of mind. The pictures don't lie! This is an opportunity where value truly surpasses the price so don’t miss your chance at this exceptional home. Call your agent today! Showings to begin Saturday....
