Property Description

Pristinely positioned on a rise in the sought-after Banker's Hill neighborhood, this estate is a remarkable fusion of timeless elegance and modern craftsmanship - a "new old home" that exudes the charm of a bygone era while offering the comfort and efficiency of contemporary living. With stately columns framing the entry, this home has stood gracefully for over a century. The historic front door opens to expansive living spaces that are bathed in light and exude warmth with multiple fireplaces to keep you warm and cozy. Boasting four spacious ensuite bedrooms, this historic landmark enjoys the benefit of significant tax savings as a recipient of the Mills Act designation. The kitchen is a chef's delight with wet (new icemaker and new wine fridge) and dry butler pantries, Carrara marble counters, an enormous island with pendant lights and an abundance of storage. The centerpiece is a Viking Limited Edition Series range with a production of only 110 units. The primary suite orients to the West and affords views of the bay and evening lights. You can enjoy the grotto shower with Carrara marble or soak in the adjoining step-up tub. The sizable wardrobe will ensure you have room to shop till you drop! A lovely breezeway above the backyard connects the main residence to a guest suite complete with mini-fridge. All of the bedrooms are ensuite. The backyard features a built-in barbecue and sink, outdoor sauna and spa, custom lighting and sound, a relaxing lounge area and an outdoor shower with toilet and sink. You can enjoy a luxurious spa experience without leaving home!
This original 1922 home was restored throughout and provides casually elegant living spaces to be enjoyed whether just relaxing at home, hosting intimate gatherings or elaborate parties. This home has been lovingly enhanced during its current ownership while preserving its historic integrity. Some of the recent upgrades include a new 30-year roof, new exterior paint, new HVAC system, new water heaters with remote controls, ButterflyMX internet-based entry gates, new Miele dishwasher, wine fridge and ice maker in the wet bar, added Zip Hydrotap instant water (boiling, chilled, carbonated), and new Toto Neorest washlet toilets in two of the bathrooms. In addition, the attic dormers have been rebuilt with historically accurate hard redwood siding and the attic windows have been replaced with historically accurate replacements, including using historic glass in the windows. These are just some of the many upgrades completed by the current owner. There is a unique garage system to enable parking of the largest oversize vehicle and in addition, there is a lift system that creates parking for a third vehicle. The garage modification was completed with Historic Commission approval. This home even has a basement, which provides even more storage space! Treat yourself to a memorable experience and schedule a private showing of this estate property.
