Exquisite craftsman style East Hill custom home, built in 1918, was originally a single story residence, currently only one bedroom in main house, an unfinished second level to complete home, a guest house and 10x12 storage. New Orleans wrought iron fencing & brick column, new metal roof lined with copper gutters, Tiftuf sod, gas lanterns at the front path, and a gorgeous oversized iron door greet you. Step inside pure luxury, with Maplewood floors, an arched railroad style barreled foyer with a mushroom wood ceiling, and continued New Orleans brick accents. Enter the master suite through a solid mahogany, Charles Phillips door with smoked glass. Notice the mushroom wood accent wall, fireplace, massive closet and dressing room, and stunning bathroom. The shower offers bluetooth, LED lights, three heads, a separate tub, and walnut floating shelves above. The living space features a double sided ventless fireplace giving some subtle separation between the areas and trey ceilings with inlaid tongue and groove heart pine. The chefâs kitchen is made for entertaining in style. Custom glass blown light fixture by local artist Joe Hobbs adds an elegant touch to the breakfast area. The kitchen features a 10 foot long leathered granite island, KitchenAid gas stove, french door Viking refrigerator/ freezer, farmhouse sink, pot filler, and custom made cabinetry by Keith Hopkins. Behind the kitchen is a walk-in pantry and a separate laundry room with space for a half bath, custom doors to the back deck, and an additional prep sink. The staircase to the second story is brick and iron with beautiful solid wood steps. The second floor is laid out for a second master suite with a marble wet room, bonus room, and guest bedroom or office. Plans are made for you to add the dormers and finish the second floor with your own tastes in mind and the property is priced for you to do this on your own or through a renovation loan. Square footage includes 1,201 on second floor incomplete.
