Historic Hillcrest
Vintage home retains original charm
Built in 1925, this historic Hillcrest home offers four bedrooms, two-and-ahalf baths, a sunroom, a home theater, a play room, a separate 400-squarefoot studio with a half bath, and more. The home has been masterfully updated, retaining many of the structure’s original features.
Beautifully detailed sidelights and a transom frame the front door, which opens to a gracious foyer illuminated by the original chandelier. A wood staircase, accented with a wroughtiron railing, leads to the second floor; the hardwood floor continues throughout the home, except for the tiled spaces.
A gas fireplace, finished with a detailed mantelpiece, is the focal point of the spacious living room. French doors open to the sunroom, which is warmed by a brick fireplace. For additional living space, the fully finished attic offers an in-home theater space and play area.
Floored in the home’s original tile, the kitchen is fitted with painted cabinetry, a breakfast bar, a butler’s pantry, quartz counters, tile backsplashes, a walk-in pantry, an oven, a gas range and a dishwasher. The breakfast room has large windows for natural light; the formal dining room opens to both the living room and the sunroom.
On the second level, the master bedroom features a decorative fireplace. The adjacent bath is floored in original Art Deco tile and has two sinks and a shower. In addition to the Art Deco hall bath, the remaining bedrooms are also on this level; one opens to a play room.
Perfect for outdoor living, the fully fenced backyard has a rock patio with an outdoor fireplace.
Other amenities include a laundry room, a half bath, a one-car garage, a tile roof and more.
