Merman, the residence is built from hand-chiseled travertine stone sourced from five different quarries, showcasing both artistry and enduring strength. Inside, timeless craftsmanship shines with four intricately carved fireplaces, a grand curved iron staircase, original wrought-iron fixtures, and a striking mix of slate and restored wood floors. Light streams through Andersen 400 windows, while a new Ludowici tile roof with copper trim ensures lasting beauty and function. Spacious interiors include a stately living room with beamed ceilings, a formal dining room wrapped in windows, and a handsome library framed by rich woodwork. The kitchen and butler’s pantry feature charming updates alongside vintage detail, and the finished lower level offers versatile gathering space with a fireplace and arched alcoves. The upper level hosts inviting bedrooms, including a serene primary suite, while the circular stairway and unique architectural details create an unmistakable sense of history throughout. Outdoors, enjoy manicured grounds with stone garden walls, a picturesque garden house, and raised produce beds. Brick walkways, shaded patios, and a fire pit area provide inviting spaces to relax or entertain, all framed by views of the nearby rose garden, lake, and park. With extensive storage and updated systems throughout, this one-of-a-kind residence balances historic charm with thoughtful modern amenities, a true legacy home.
