Built in 1909 this 100+ year old two story cedar shake vernacular is a 2600+ SQ FT home featuring 5 bedrooms and 3 baths centered on THREE lots with the entire property measuring 102 wide x125 deep (13,000+SQ FT LOT). Behind the home is an alley running the length of the block providing access to the garage (detached oversized 25x25, able to handle a vehicle the size of a suburban with space to still walk around) from the alley via a 28x30 driveway offering additional off street parking. The home was purchased by the current home owners in 1999 and put thru a complete and entire renovation to include all new double hung vinyl insulated windows, wiring, plumbing and sewer connection to the street. Hardwood floors throughout in addition to custom tile work in all three baths and kitchen. The downstairs footprint consists of a foyer, formal living room, formal dining room, family room, full bath, guest bedroom, and kitchen. The upstairs footprint consists of an office, master bedroom with bath, day room, an additional full bath, laundry room, and two more bedrooms. Attic is full stand up and is insulated with Open Cell Foam (could easily be finished off into a huge 3rd story bonus room should additional living space be desired) while crawl space is insulated with Closed Cell Foam. All exterior walls have also been insulated with rolled fiberglass insulation. The house is extremely energy efficient. There are open front porches both upstairs (accessible from the office) and downstairs that each provide an additional 223 SQ FT of outdoor living space per porch. Totally enclosed yard with access only through front gate and garage. Two additional gates (one on the front North lawn and one on the rear South lawn provide further security to the pool and pond areas). At the rear of the North lawn there is a Koi pond with waterfall. Pond and surrounding area constructed from 15 tons of North Carolina river rock and an adjacent 25’x25’ brick patio. Mature fully landscaped yard including ivey, confederate jasmine, asiatic jasmine, schilling, holleys, ligustroms, ferns, crepe myrtles, raintrees, leyland cypress, river birch and oak trees. With eight zone timer sprinkler system connected to a separate irrigation water meter for cost savings. The rear yard has an in-ground pool (pregnant kidney design) completely surrounded by a huge paver patio. There is an additional paver walk way around the entire home.
