Welcome home to 1204 University, built in 1926 by local builder C.S. Griffith as his personal home.
Set on .44 of an acre this lot goes all the way back to the street behind it. Architectural lighting that adjusts with an app further enhances this handsome home.
Extensive front porch also features a door into the enclosed garden room. An open balcony is above.
Original windows give character, sound proofing storm windows also keep the temperature inside free from the outside!
The entry hall features original woodwork, chandelier and a table from the original owners!
The way the rooms open to each other as well as the generous size is unusual to find in a home of this genre.
The main living area offers lots of ways to arrange furniture with plenty of room for a Baby Grand Piano if you like!
Built in bookshelves are a wonderful asset to showcase your collections! The french doors open up to what is currently a studio room
This photo shows how the living opens to the dining area. A wonderful home to entertain in!
You would never know there are sound proofing storm windows here to keep the cold out and the heat in - as well as any traffic noise!
High ceilings, original wood floors, crown molding add so much character! The door on the far wall wall goes out to the garden room.
Original French doors allow you to close off this room or leave open as shown here.
The dining room still features the original built in china buffet as well as 3 sets of french doors!
Can you see yourself serving holiday dinners in this elegant room?
Natural light spills in from these walls of windows making it a great space for creativity or play. What are your hobbies? The utility room is off this area. This door opens to the backyard
How fun is this painted floor and ship lap ceiling!
A cozy corner is a lovely spot to share a meal in this eat-in kitchen.
There is an RO filter with water spout at the sink. Also enjoy the benefitis of a water softener and tankless water heater.
Those doors open into the pantry
The kitchen opens into this office area with a half bath and a door out to the Porte-cochere. Makes bringing in groceries easy!
Upstairs reveals the ship-lap walls that exist throughout the home under the plaster!
This bedroom also has an entrance into the hall bath.
Hard to get a good angle of hall bath - yes - that is an original tub!
This bedroom is currently being used as the primary suite as the owner loves to sit and read on the enclosed sleeping porch. That is actually a triple French door you see next to more built-in bookcases!
A walk-in closet offers great storage as well as a view of the backyard from this cozy space.
You can't see the walk-in shower from this angle but don't you love that slipper tub. This primary bath opens into a combo closet/ dressing room. You will love the heated floors on a cold day!
This room could also be used as a primary suite as it opens onto the balcony and features an original fireplace.
The garden room is off the living area and is not heated or cooled. You can access the front porch or backyard from this room.
Hard to keep up with the leaves this time of year! Balcony is off bedroom #3
So many ways to enjoy this expansive yard. Fence on left opens into a currently unplanted garden area.
The yard is fully fenced.
We couldn't get inside photos of the guest house as the owner was working. There is a small kitchen, a living area, bedroom and full bath.
