Hidden behind twin Magnolia trees, you’ll find this week’s High Caliber Home of the Week, sponsored by Lisa Peters of Caliber Home Loans. At face value, it’s a 1930 Queen Anne with classic columns, lacy shingles, and gorgeous Victorian style. Inside, it’s a modern luxury specifically designed for entertaining.
I think what’s most interesting about this State Thomas home are all the property’s possibilities. Listing agent Lori Ericsson of David Griffin and Company tells us its zoning allows residential and light commercial office, so if you decided you wanted the latter, it has room for gated rear parking. It could be your perfect work and live scenario for your small law office or chic marketing agency.
Indeed, this 1930 home has been many things, including an office building, a home, and most recently, a popular AirBNB vacation rental. It underwent a full remodel down to the studs in 2018 and a dramatic backyard overhaul. A gated, covered rear parking lot was replaced with a sophisticated pool, spa, and outdoor entertaining spaces.
The result is a divine State Thomas home that’s light and airy, adorned with hardwood floors throughout, plantation shutters, and three living spaces. Plus, if you fancy the furniture, it’s negotiable with the sale of the home.
The kitchen is a real stunner with stainless commercial appliances including a double oven, built-in refrigerator/freezer, and built-in microwave, and a wall of pristine white cabinets that are begging for a matching white set of Cuisinart and Le Creuset everythings.
Same goes for the primary bath suite. Gorgeous standalone shower, claw foot garden tub, dual sinks, and walk-in closets with built-in laundry station.
Fantastic location tucked next to downtown, just a few blocks from Clyde Warren Park and Mckinney Avenue with all its restaurants. nightlife and shopping.
