Located in the heart of the North Cumberland Heights Historic District, this 1937 American Colonial Revival residence blends period charm with contemporary style. Meticulously updated - including all major systems - the home features striking designer wallpaper, refined color schemes, custom curtains, new built-in bookshelves, and fully renovated kitchen. The four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home retains all the hallmark characteristics of Colonial architecture: a smooth stucco exterior, balanced symmetrical facade, original double-hung wood windows, a five-light paneled front door, recessed central entry, dormers above second-story windows, and a classic bandcourse that elegantly defines the two levels. Inside, a gracious layout unfolds: the formal living room with gas fireplace and the family room sit to one side of the central staircase, while the dining room opens seamlessly to a modernized kitchen on the other. All four bedrooms are located upstairs, including the primary suite with its private bathroom and walk-in dressing room. One of the bedrooms includes a built-in desk and can serve as either an office or a bedroom. Situated on an expansive lot, the backyard is a private oasis featuring a sunlit pool and a guesthouse perched just above a lush lawn. Designed in a similar architectural style, the guesthouse ties the compound together. Set behind the two-car garage, it offers a full ADU with kitchen, bath, laundry, and private entry, ideal for long-term guests or rental opportunities. Sustainably equipped with owned solar panels and a Tesla Powerwall battery, the main residence supports energy-efficient living and pool heating. The home has also recently undergone seismic retrofitting.
