Property description

Nestled in an ideal central location just moments from parks, shopping, and recreation, this historic gem offers a rare blend of heritage elegance and modern comfort. Originally built in the late 1800s as the Jackman and Greene residence, the home boasts incredible architectural character—highlighted by a breathtaking ceiling mural painted by the apprentice of Alexander Pindikowsky, famed for his work on the Basilica. The original staircase and two working fireplaces reflect the home's storied past, while thoughtful updates ensure day-to-day ease. The former servants' quarters have been seamlessly integrated into the main living space, expanding both functionality and flow. Enjoy radiant warmth throughout with classic cast iron radiators powered by a new electric furnace. High ceilings grace both the main and second levels, enhancing the sense of space and light. A handcrafted heritage-style front door by artisan Mike Patterson welcomes you in, while original stained glass in the kitchen and an exquisite glass foyer doorway celebrate the home’s craftsmanship. Outside, the large rear yard is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, featuring two stone patios and a charming upper balcony off a second-floor bedroom. A rare offering in a sought-after location—rich in history and built for today. And if you had hoped for an apartment to help with the mortgage, the one bedroom servant quarters can be reestablished with minimal work! And, no seller's direction in place!
