Vintage appeal
Classic Heights home teams elegance, comfort
Constructed in 1932 and beautifully updated, this Little Rock home offers four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths and an abundance of space for living and entertaining. The private backyard features gorgeous gardens, a stone fountain, a rock fireplace and a 12-by-26-foot workshop for the family handyman or artist.
Inside the front door, the chandelier-lit foyer opens to the light-filled living room, which has a site-built fireplace and builtin cabinets. Just off the living room is a sunroom that opens to the backyard. The French country kitchen features floor-toceiling cabinetry, granite counters and stainless-steel appliances — a refrigerator, a dishwasher, a convection wall oven and a professional-grade stove with a convection oven, a gas cooktop and a griddle. In addition to the breakfast area, there is a formal dining room positioned between the kitchen and living room. Linking the kitchen to the family room is a bar area that has an ice maker and a beverage fridge. A lofty vaulted wood ceiling soars above the family room, which is anchored by a painted brick fireplace.
Upstairs, the master bedroom opens to an elegant tiled bath that has a marble-topped double-sink vanity and an oversized glass and tile shower. There are two walk-in closets, one with a builtin bureau and dressing area. There are three additional bedrooms, all carpeted on this level. One, which would be perfect for a nursery, has built-in bookshelves, a private bath with a tub/shower combination, and a walk-through closet that opens to the master bedroom. The tiled hall bath offers a single-sink vanity and a tiled shower.
Ideal for use as a game or play room, the finished attic features a Palladian window and opens to three storage areas. Other amenities include a laundry room, a powder room, window treatments, a sprinkler system and much more.
