Style Notes

Architecturally impressive. This beautiful home blends modern interior aesthetics (such as a glass ceiling, crittall-style doors and a contemporary square extension) with the historic bones of the property, seen clearly in the original bay windows and stained glass detailing. Soft tones and relaxing neutral tones complement the warming parquet flooring, while sleek contemporary bathrooms and industrial-style features in the kitchen bring the interiors up to date. We love the pretty front porch, the eye-catching modern art and the clever partition spaces in the kitchen.
