Description

SOUTH KENWOOD BEAUTY IN THE HEART OF THE HISTORICAL DISTRICT-this elegant, historical Greystone was designed by Architects Wilson and Marshall and built in 1896. The craftsmanship of its day is noticed from the exterior of the building, past the wrought iron fence and once you step inside. This elegant home features three levels of living above grade, 6 bedrooms and 5 1/2 baths has the bonus of a large three-bedroom coach house with 2 full bathrooms above the 3-car garage. Coach house is great for extended family stays or as added income. First floor has second staircase to the second floor. Other features are arched doorway, built-ins, tons of light. Coach house is so sweet and is large and homey. Home sits on 50' x 150' lot which allows for the side lot to be used to garden, read, party, play, relax, etc. With its high ceilings, original wood moldings, original inlaid rift-sawn oak floors, uniquely crafted staircase, fireplaces, stained glass windows, multiple ensuite bedrooms, and so much more. Full semi-finished high-high ceiling basement adds for more living space. Separate HVAC systems for house and coach house. Lake, university, museums, restaurants, and so much more. This masterful built home is awaiting your furniture. A REAL GEM!!!
