THE POLKINGHORN RESIDENCE, 1911. Built by architect Wm. Polkinghorn as the residence for his family, there is no question that this Craftsman possesses a timeless grandeur. But even more important, it feels like a true home. Entering the front gate, which is graced by a lighted pergola, you'll stop to appreciate the zen-like landscaping of the yard, which includes a pair of birch trees that frame the steps leading to the large covered porch. The house itself is postcard-perfect Craftsman featuring a triple-gabled roof and shingle siding. Inside, you'll marvel at the magnificent original details found in every direction: brick fireplace, stained glass windows, rich mahogany paneled walls, plate rail, picture rail, coffered ceiling, massive crown molding, pocket doors, a gorgeous hutch...too many details to list! A bright, spacious kitchen leads to a 300 sf deck and back yard that is a veritable oasis with a perimeter of lush greenery and a 5-tier fountain. Must see! Harvard Heights HPOZ
