DESCRIPTION For additional information search 1132magnoliacurve.com. This charming English Cottage has been re-designed and re-built in three extensive renovations by the Architect-Owner Les Cole. With 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, the 4,030 sf house has custom features throughout including a 400 sf guesthouse with additional bath and a 380 sf covered porch. The beauty and warmth of this one of a kind structure is immediately realized upon entering the house and experiencing the spacious interiors. It features over-scaled openings and expansive windows that create a modern, open floorplan. Hardwood floors, heavy mouldings, specialty finished walls, decorative and recessed lighting, and built-in wood shutters and blinds enhance the lovely sophistication of these spaces. The Living Room fireplace is highlighted by the original plaster mantel that exposes layers of color that were discovered in the first renovation. The most stunning feature of the home is the 44 foot long “Sunporch”. Large Gothic openings and tall fixed and operable French doors frame the vaulted, beamed ceilings which vary in height from 10 to 14 feet. Eastern and southern light abounds in this elegant, glass enclosed space creating an ethereal quality throughout the day. Another wood burning fireplace is accented by a cast-stone “Pugin’ replica mantel and soaring ceiling. The room is large enough for two seating groups and a casual dining area and yet retains a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere. French doors open to the 18 x 21 foot covered porch with wood beams and ceiling and this continues to the 700 sf brick terrace beyond. These spaces are surrounded by a double, 1” sided fence and a lush, landscaped oasis that makes the house 100% private. The Kitchen has interior openings on three sides and features custom cabinetry with a “grained” finish, stainless steel appliances and gas cooktop, granite tiled counters, limestone backsplashes and an island with seating for two. The Master Suite, which was created in the original renovation, includes two large walk-in closets and bathroom with whirlpool tub. A separate room houses the toilet and newly remodeled steam-shower with frameless glass door. An ample Guestroom is also located on the first floor and features a private, newly remodeled bath. The wood staircase with carpeted runner leads upstairs to an open, light-filled den that has a 10 foot vaulted ceiling. Two bedrooms connect to this space. The bathroom has a separate room for the toilet and bathtub and there is an enclosed hallway with refrigerator/freezer that leads to a 10 x 9 cedar lined closet. Another door leads to the approximately 180 sf attic. The carpet was replaced in 2020. The 400 sf Guesthouse features a 21 foot long living space with polished concrete floors and ceilings that vault to 12 feet. It has a small kitchen with an under-counter refrigerator and utility sink. The bathroom includes a shower with separate electric water heater. The structure has recessed and decorative lighting, ceiling fans and a thru-wall AC. There’s a 5 x 8 foot fully shelved storage room that opens to the exterior. All walls and ceilings are beaded wood. Tall French doors open to a wooden terrace with concealed 6x6 hottub. This quant structure is currently used as an activity and exercise room but is aptly appointed to become a home office or mother-in-law suite. The landscape includes lush, mature shrubs and trees with several garden pathway. Tall fencing surrounds the yard creating total privacy. There’s an additional 80 sf board and batten storage building with two levels and rooster weathervane. Extensive landscape lighting is controlled by multiple timers that create an incredible series of “outdoor rooms” which enliven the house at night and bring the exteriors inside.
