Stunning Woodwork, Bathed in Light. Brilliantly renovated by a mathematician and craftsman studied in Japanese carpentry, this home has been beautifully remade for today's living. A semi-open floor plan weaves together the kitchen, dining and living spaces but provides private office/study/tv space as well. Filled with custom woodwork including hand-built cabinetry, doors, trim and staircase. The open stair is a delight with white oak treads pegged with walnut and following the Fibonacci Sequence. Two large living spaces, one in the front of the house and the other in back with a bank of south-facing, floor-to-ceiling windows fills the house with light. A main floor flex room could be used as a study, tv room or bedroom. An efficient kitchen with a commercial gas stove, ceramic backsplash with local artist, Chris Holmquist tiles, and plenty of cupboard space. Note the custom, spalted maple kitchen cabinets which are coopered. Two bedrooms and a large study are on the upper level. Like the sunroom on the main floor, the study has a bank of south facing windows overlooking the backyard. Upper level laundry in the WC and a separate bathing room. You'll fall in love the with deep soaking tub and separate shower. Note Chris Holmquist tiles and butternut woodwork in the bathing room and WC. See if you can find the Fibonacci Sequence in the tiles! Landscaped for privacy, the front yard is extremely low maintenance, planted in a ground cover. The back yard landscaping includes soft curving mounded areas, shrubs, trees and perennial flowers. Enjoy the large screened porch overlooking the backyard. Most of the windows have been replaced, furnace and AC, 2011, Roof and skylight 2023. Exterior trim painted 2023. Walking or biking distance to either college, downtown shops and farmers markets. Way Park is just a stone's throw away. The garage was converted to a work shop for woodworking. Insulated with a heavy duty wood floor (also insulated), 220 outlets and tons of shop lighting. There is a carport to keep the weather off your car. See supplements for more details of this amazing property.
