Description

The historic restoration of this beautiful 1917 home has been conducted using Missouri Historic Preservation guidelines, preserving it's historical integrity. This modern farm house style home is on the National Registry of Historic Homes. The home's character and charm has been maintained with original wood floors, doors including three sets of large beautiful pocket doors, as well as the original 7 inch wide baseboards and molding preserved (stored in garage). This home has been completely gutted and now has all new: roof, drywall, plumbing, electric, insulation, gutters, flat roofs, second and third floor HVAC, kitchen cabinets, video surveillance system, indoor and outdoor lighting, large water heater, water softener, garage car doors and side door with keypads, water and electric to the garage, landscaping with irrigation system and privacy fencing. The new kitchen includes floor to ceiling historic reproduction flush mount cabinets with furniture feet, two apron farm sinks, a tiled back splash, butcher block counter tops, open shelves, an outdoor vented exhaust fan and under cabinet lighting. This home has 13 new historically built windows hand made by a historical window specialist, a second floor laundry room, high ceilings, original and vintage crystal chandeliers, three fireplaces, a balcony with all new posts and railing, and marble tile in the second floor master bath. The original house plans from 1917 have been used to bring this home as close to it's original state as possible using vintage cast iron tubs, sinks, and light fixtures. There are 5 bedrooms, including two masters, 4 full bathrooms, a formal dining area, parlor, living room, foyer, second floor laundry room and a third floor bonus room. The basement consists of 1500 sq. ft. of storage space with concrete floors and an additional laundry hookup and deep sink. The front porch has new 8 foot columns, posts and railing. Two new gas fireplaces have been purchased for installation. Located in the Historic Midtown Neighborhood, this home is within walking distance of C-Street Farmer's Market, Drury University, Cox North Hospital, Cox College, the Midtown Library, and OTC. The neighborhood schools: Boyd Elementary, Pipkin Middle School and Central High School are IB (International Baccalaureate) schools. The 1/3 acre yard has two back yard sections, one of which is enclosed by a new privacy fence and would make a great place for a garden, chickens or a swimming pool. There are ally ways that run alongside the home which are perfect for bike riding. The third floor has been remodeled into a suite with a bedroom, walk in closet, bonus room and full bathroom making it a potential apartment with separate entrance for a second occupant.
