The home opens onto a gracious living and dining area anchored by a decorative fireplace framed with original bird’s-eye maple wainscoting — a rare wood detail prized for its shimmering grain. Tall ceilings and sun bathed south-facing bay windows flood the space with natural light and warmth, while elegant coved ceilings and hardwood floors lend period charm. The renovated kitchen stands out with unique ice-blue quartz counters, abundant custom shelving, and brand-new cabinetry. The Bertazzoni gas stove, Bosch dishwasher, and vented hood make cooking a breeze.
With double exposures overlooking leafy garden views, the primary bedroom feels bright, airy, and tranquil. The ensuite main bath is a jewel box, blending historic elegance with luxurious finishes: an original restored porcelain enamel clawfoot tub, Waterworks fixtures, handcrafted Moroccan zellige tiles, Restoration Hardware mirror, and a calming blue palette. The windowed half bath adds everyday convenience and is finished with classic penny tile for timeless character.
Beyond the primary bedroom, a home office (with Velux solar powered skylight that provides abundant light and air) allows endless flexibility for work, guests, or creative use. Above, a sleeping loft expands the possibilities of the home.
214 Carlton showcases design sophistication and thoughtful preservation, with distinctive front doors and an architecturally refined entrance.
