Property Description
It's a rare pleasure to find a renovation that honors the architectural integrity of the original home while embracing the comforts and functionality of modern living. This beautifully restored residence strikes that balance - offering a seamless path between the gathering rooms, kitchen, and expansive deck, all of which enjoy tranquil views of Lake Maria Sanchez. Traditional details abound, from gleaming heart pine floors to wainscoting in the generous entry foyer and living room. A wide bay window frames the front garden, while an oversized pocket door allows you to close off the kitchen when privacy is desired. The entry foyer - spacious enough to furnish, opens into a welcoming living room, leading in turn to the sunroom, dining room, and a light-filled kitchen. No matter where you stand, the lake is a constant, sparkling presence. In the late afternoon, its surface shimmers with golden hues as the sun dips toward the horizon - an everyday reminder of nature's beauty. The gathering rooms are large and have a circular flow. A fireplace on the diagonal and the bay window anchor two distinct spaces in the living room. Its versatility invites you to arrange the room to suit your needs and style. The kitchen was designed and outfitted by a talented woodworker who previously called 314 St George St home. It suits the architectural style of the house, easily blending form and function with a simple beauty. The sun room runs along the south side of the house and offers a casual sitting area on one end and the dining room on the other. Under window shelves offer a place to keep your cookbooks and display your favorite dishes. French doors between kitchen and dining open to the deck and let the sunshine in during afternoon hours. The primary bedroom is en-suite with private bath and is located on the 1st floor. With four windows and a vaulted ceiling, two of those windows overlook the water while French doors lead you to the deck. Upstairs, the front bedroom features a large alcove nestled beneath the tree canopy. The rear bedroom faces the lake and both rooms share the hall bath. Laundry and welcome storage occupy two rooms and offer the potential for adding a private bath and walk-in-closet for the front bedroom. Across the hall, two smaller rooms house the washer, dryer and more welcome storage. They also provide the ability to add a private bath and walk-in closet to the front bedroom. The back deck is a favorite place for dining, birdwatching, morning coffee, evening cocktails and makes for a great outdoor office too! The backyard is landscaped with native plantings and fenced to keep your 4-legged family members close by. A covered carport on the lakeside provides convenient, sheltered parking and a place for the kayak. Every detail, whether newly added or lovingly preserved, reflects a deep pride of ownership. Words and photographs can only go so far - this is a home you must experience in person. With dual frontage on both St. George and Cordova Streets, this home enjoys two of the most desirable addresses in the city's cherished residential historic district. It's a pleasant stroll along the lake or down St George St as you head to the center of downtown to begin your exploration of the myriad culinary, cultural, architectural and historic offerings. Charge or gas up the car, make the airline reservations, get on your bicycle and come try it on - we'll be waiting for you on the porch.
