About this House

The entire home has been newly constructed. Every effort was made to restore it's traditional Victorian charm. The home was a recipient of a 2017 architectural preservation award for restoring gable shingles, custom wood Bay windows, enclosed porch including entry stairs and colonial balusters. New carriage-style doors have also been installed. Other features include a traditional living room with a gas fireplace, traditional stairs to new attic spaces with skylights, expanded kitchen and dining area with new stainless steel appliances, and french doors leading to a balcony and enclosed back yard. Architectural details complement the new construction, with stunning tile in the kitchen and bathrooms, hardwood floors, and built-up crown molding, wainscoting, and Victorian trim throughout the main floor. The new traditional staircase adds scale while allowing light to filter throughout the main floor from new large skylight.

We have loved being a part of the Paden community. This year is no different. We were concerned when the former principal left the school right after the school year started that what we love about the school might disappear. The interim principal Mr Flores has made connections with us and other families. The staff is welcoming, the art docent program is amazing, they have a makers space and a library with inclusive books. This school is my only experience with public schools and I am happy to be a part of the Pelican community

"It’s a nice quiet neighborhood. Families outside, kids walking, riding bikes, water balloon fights and table tennis are regularly enjoyed. I moved here from the city - it’s definitely slower - shuts down early but a lovely place to call home - seemingly a lone star born from the idyllic American towns of yesteryear. "
