Description:

Step through the original oak entry door into the gracious foyer of this quintessential Mount Pleasant Victorian rowhouse, where historic craftsmanship and refined modern living exist in perfect balance. Framed by rich millwork, the entry opens to a broad, light-filled main level defined by generous ceiling heights, a turned original staircase, and an elegant progression of rooms that extend from the bay-front façade to the garden beyond... an arrangement that allows the home to function beautifully for both daily life and gatherings. At the front of the home, the bay-windowed spacious living room showcases exceptional original woodwork and a decorative fireplace, its historic detail complemented by understated contemporary lighting and a restrained palette. Further inside, exposed brick walls, warm hardwood floors, and oversized windows define a generous dining and sitting area with almost loft-like details, an inviting and comfortable space. This level also includes a well‑placed powder room for added everyday convenience. At the heart of the home, a thoughtfully renovated modern kitchen features sleek dual-toned cabinetry, stone counters, glazed ceramic tile backsplash, and quality appliances create a space that is both beautiful and highly functional. Upstairs, the main residence offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which are en-suites, each enhanced by thoughtfully designed custom closets. The functional layout provides exceptional flexibility for use of this space. The main home’s four and a half baths have been reimagined with incredible attention to detail, featuring carefully selected tiles, quality fixtures, and spa-inspired finishes. Outdoor living is equally compelling. Two private decks overlook a lush rear garden that offers rare tranquility in the city with breathtaking views and create an inviting setting for morning coffee, summer meals, or a quiet evening beneath mature trees. A separate but attached, fully renovated one-bedroom, one-bath lower-level apartment adds valuable versatility, well suited for extended family, an au pair, or income-producing rental use. It features an open floor-plan, generous kitchen, laundry and separate entrance. Set along a leafy street, on one of the most coveted blocks in the heart of Mount Pleasant close to Bancroft Elementary school, several parks & shops, this distinguished residence offers a rare combination: authentic architectural character, a meticulous high-end renovation, and the generous scale and comfort that truly feels like home.
