Property Description
Warm, modern living meets classic Clarksville charm in this beautifully reimagined urban retreat, just steps from Jeffrey's, Josephine House, and Café Medici. The original 1940 cottage was fully restored and expanded in 2023 with a sophisticated modern addition, creating a seamless 2,875 sq ft, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence filled with curated details and refined craftsmanship. Inside, hand-selected finishes include marble handrails, full-slab backsplash, fluted cabinetry, boutique tile and wallpaper, and a striking wraparound skylight that floods the staircase tower with natural light. The lower-level kitchen is a showpiece with soapstone and marble counters, a Bertazzoni range, and paneled appliances. A spacious living and dining area opens directly to the private backyard and deck, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow.The exterior features a metal and TPO roof, custom half-round gutters, Andersen windows, and a steel accordion door opening to thoughtfully designed landscaping with custom steel accents, irrigation, xeriscaping, and a composite deck. The original structure was taken to the studs and rebuilt with new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, spray-foam insulation, drywall, and a redesigned floor plan. Engineered oak flooring pairs with custom cabinetry and modern tile throughout. The comfortable primary suite features a spacious wet room with soaking tub and double shower, floating double vanity, and large walk-in closet. Laundry is available on both levels, with a stackable unit upstairs and full laundry room with sink below. Two additional bedrooms and a full secondary bath complete the bedroom level. At the main entry, the original portion offers a flexible bedroom, full bath, and bar with sink and beverage fridge, ideal as a guest suite, office, or private second living area. A private driveway and carport provide convenient alley access.
