Property Description
Dazzling 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home in desirable Highlands. This house was once a part of the Gibraltar estate until the estate was broken up in the early 1900's. It then served as the secretary's residence (assistant to Hugh Rodney Sharp). This property was part of three separate houses associated with the main estate and was integrated with the Gibraltar estate Nursery/Greenhouse which supported the garden designed by Marian Coffin that are now open to the public and only a half block away. The home is now situated on a large corner fenced in lot, that is well manicured and professionally landscaped. The lower level boasts gleaming maple hardwood floors, wood burning fireplace, deep inset windows, original arched doorways, and a magnificent custom maple banister. The kitchen has a European design with induction cooktop, stainless steel appliances and wine refrigerator. There is also a convenient powder room. Upstairs, you will find a large master suite with a private deck, his and her walk in closets, a contemporary master bath with double sinks and large tiled shower. Additionally, the master suite has a sitting room that could be used as an office, exercise space or nursery. Completing the upper level are two generous sized bedrooms and another contemporary full bath and upstairs laundry. The basement is a great storage area. Home is equipped to add an elevator. Beautiful exterior consists of stone and flawless stucco, extended driveway for numerous cars and a garage. History, charm, and modern amenities make this a home a must view today!
