A rare find in the heart of Morningside, this beautifully reimagined Craftsman bungalow offers an extraordinary combination of timeless charm, exceptional craftsmanship and sophisticated design. A thoughtfully executed custom renovation and expansion in 2018 transformed the original bungalow into a remarkable residence, preserving its welcoming character while introducing the space, architectural details and luxurious finishes of a much larger custom home. A charming front porch adorned with traditional gas lanterns welcomes you inside, where the level of fit and finish is rarely encountered at this price point. Solid core doors, beautifully detailed trim work and 10-foot ceilings on the main level are just a few of the thoughtful details that distinguish this home at every turn.
Designed for both gracious entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the home offers a wonderful sense of space and flow. An expansive, welcoming family room opens to a stunning kitchen and inviting breakfast area, creating a gathering space at the heart of the home. The kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, Wolf gas range, Bosch dishwasher, Sharp microwave, gorgeous Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, custom inset cabinetry and a striking statement vent hood. An adjoining custom butler's pantry and bar, located across from a walk-in pantry, add both convenience and elegance, making the space equally suited for gatherings large and small.
Beautiful hardwood floors, lighting from Visual Comfort and exquisite trim details lend warmth and character throughout the home. The primary suite is particularly special, with its striking vaulted ceiling and tranquil views from three sides, creating a serene retreat. The beautifully appointed primary bath features rich wood tones, marble accents and elegant Rohl fixtures. The secondary bedrooms and baths are equally inviting; each thoughtfully finished with the same attention to quality and design.
One of the home's most wonderful features is the year-round screened porch, complete with a handsome wood-burning brick fireplace and built-in infrared heater, creating an inviting outdoor living room to enjoy in every season. The home is also fully wired for audio and visual systems, both indoors and out, adding another layer of convenience for everyday living and entertaining. The beautifully landscaped backyard offers a lovely, private setting for relaxing or entertaining, while the welcoming front porch and flagstone walkway add to the home's timeless curb appeal. Beautifully positioned on its lot and surrounded by thoughtfully maintained landscaping, the home is as inviting outside as it is within.
An exceptional location just moments from the beloved shops, restaurants and neighborhood destinations of both Morningside and Virginia Highland completes this remarkable property.
With its inviting character, beautifully considered interiors and exceptional Morningside location, this is a home that truly must be experienced.
