Property Description
Welcome to your home on the Park! Have you thought about how great it would be to live in the Highlands, especially in one of the only single family homes on highly desirable Rockford Road with easy access to multiple parks as well as a quick walk to shopping and restaurants? Well think no longer. Your opportunity is here. This is truly a one of a kind unique home that no one else can replicate. The original home dates back to 1853, yet the "new" home has been completely renovated to 2020 high quality standards! No detail has been spared. Entirely new electric, plumbing and roof, along with new 2-zoned HVAC, Pella windows, 3.5 all new bathrooms are just the beginning of the high end features of this home. From the start, you are welcomed by a large covered porch enabling you to converse with neighbors or just watch life go by. Glass and iron custom door beckons you into the spacious open concept main level. Your all new, upscale chef's kitchen is the heart of the home. With a 6-burner Viking professional range, side by side built in refrigerator and freezer, large eat-in island with beautiful marble counters and on-trend farm sink, plentiful storage in the many soft close cabinets and drawers, your cooking skills can be displayed (or learned) in this amazing space. Thoughtfully designed, the kitchen even includes cabinets with glass doors and under cabinet lighting to display your favorite glassware and plates. Conveniently located on the main level you will also find a washer/dryer closet and alcove for a folding table and a powder room with elegant cabinetry tucked privately in the back. The great room includes a family room large enough for comfortable seating and entertaining as well as a gas fireplace to enhance your dining area. The entire main floor is incredibly bright and sunny with preserved and new hardwood floors, easy open Pella windows and French doors leading out to the spacious new deck. The deck provides enough room for dining, lounging and entertaining as you overlook the beautifully landscaped back yard with architectural features, Japanese maples and magnolias, custom "carriage house" storage shed, brick paths and most of all... Rockford Park! From the main level, notice the airy stair case with custom wood and glass railings, windows at each landing, elegant lighting and even an antique newel post. On the second level you will find a spacious owner's suite with two closets. The walk-in closet is graced by a mullioned glass door saved from the original home. In that custom closet you'll also see a beautiful stained glass window also original, adding authenticity to this preserved historic home. The owner's bathroom has every feature you could desire with oversized soaking tub, walk-in shower with custom Italian tile, large double sink vanity with Carrera marble tops. New windows and bright light enhance the beauty and functionality of this spa-like room. A 2nd bedroom on this floor also has a large closet and custom lighting and accesses the hall bath with lovely chandelier, custom Italian tilework and vanity. Walk up to the third floor with pretty sconce lighting, two more bedrooms that also would work well as office space, yoga studio or playrooms. A 3rd full bathroom with blue and gold decor compliments the gold rimmed "porthole" lights and original 1870 beams in the bedrooms. There's even a carpeted storage/play room on this level, creating numerous easy-access storage opportunities in this home. Many of us are trying to reduce our carbon footprint - well in this home, not only can you do that, you can actually live next to a park in an area that allows you to walk almost anywhere you need to go while up to 3 cars are parked off-street. At the same time you can live in an historic park home, preserved for the ages, with every modern convenience you need. Call to make your appointment today to tour this amazing home!
