Step into a masterclass of turn-of-the-century craftsmanship with this historic T.P. Healy-built home in coveted Lowry Hill. Architectural purists and modern entertainers alike will marvel at the pristine original woodwork. While its historical majesty remains intact, the modern comforts have been thoughtfully integrated. You'll be greeted by a sprawling front porch made for morning coffee and relaxing evenings. The sitting and living rooms are stunners, featuring box-beamed ceilings, fluted columns, custom wainscoting, intricate curved moldings, and original leaded and stained-glass windows (protected from time by being on the north side of the home.) Premium mechanical and smart upgrades abound, including newer kitchen appliances and flooring, updated wiring, an exterior refresh in 2016, zoned heating and cooling, Pella integrated diffusing and blackout blinds in the front bedrooms, and Google smart lighting throughout. Take in the gorgeous stained glass as you ascend the staircase to the upper floor with three bedrooms + office. The primary bedroom is large, with built-in bench for sitting and dressing, a beautiful decorative fireplace, two sunny walls of windows, and two owners' closets with California Closets organizers. The hall and bath feature curved arches, built-ins, vintage tile. Space and versatility just define this home: the 2019-finished basement is a welcoming space to do laundry (new machines in 2023) and more. With a large flex space for kids' rec room or family room, heated floors, a custom wet bar, beautiful 3/4 bath, fifth bedroom with sunny egress, the lower level is great au pair's quarters or private guest suite. Unfinished 3rd Floor Opportunity - explore your vision for an expansive primary suite, studio, or media lounge - the untouched attic space with a peak ceiling height of 17', is uninterrupted with mechanicals or barriers. Set on a rare lot-and-a-half, the property offers a private, fully fenced backyard ideal for lawn games and summer hosting, alongside a long concrete driveway (and ample room to add a new garage--endless options). All of this is positioned just steps from Thomas Lowry Seven Pools Park, Kenwood Park, Cedar Lake Trail, the City Lakes, neighborhood favorites like Sebastian Joe's, with seamless access to freeways and transit.
