Property Description
Designed by renowned architects Liederbach and Graham, this outstanding home offers a unique blend of exposed brick and industrial metalwork throughout. The interiors were designed by Bruce Fox and offer a phenomenal home with truly impressive details. A variety of shades and materials throughout the home truly bring the space to life. The relaxed feel of the residence stems from the use of natural materials, such as exposed brick, reclaimed barn wood, White Oak wall paneling and steel accents such as stair railings and door frames. The 45' wide lot house sits inside of a walled "secret" urban garden, with the entire ground level of the house open to the outdoors. This creates a true oasis in the heart of the city. Ceiling heights feel limitless, and light enters the open first floor living, dining, kitchen and greatroom from all sides. Every room is accompanied by beautiful stone, fabrics, and the well-regarded Hope's Windows. The enclave offers a very unique attached guest suite coach house over the attached garage with a full kitchen and a living room bathed in two sides of natural light. There is even a lofted bedroom accessed by an industrial steel ladder, perfect for a play fort or "treehouse," in addition to the large bedroom with vaulted ceilings. Access the lower level by the fabulous metal staircase or through the additional stair, where there is access to the 900-bottle wine cellar and tasting room, and the recreational room complete with a sauna and bath. The heated brick 3 car garage is also a great entertaining space as well! Ultra fabulous home!
