This quintessential North End masterpiece sits perfectly between the doorstep of downtown & the perpetual festivities of Hyde Park. An extensive down to the studs renovation spanning over 2-years has left no stone unturned in pursuit of the perfect rejuvenation. Restored to its former glory, the original front door welcomes you in with its stained glassed window above the original knocker. Decadence abounds from refinished original oak wood floors to custom Idaho Blue Pine wood railings, milled by hand. The original red brick chimney lies exposed at the center of the home, in situ as a homage to times past. A marvelous kitchen boasts exquisite custom Canyon Creek cabinetry, bountiful in storage, rounded out by Caf appliances. The enamoring bathrooms all feature custom Schulter showers w/ 3/8" thick glass, clad in custom tile. New electrical systems, HVAC, windows & roofing earn a 5 Star Energy rating. Relish in the old world charm of classic North End architecture, while enjoying the amenities of modernity.
