Occasionally, a rare opportunity arises and something special comes to market, this is one of
them. Welcome to Historic Girard Estate. This handsome twin home facing Stephen Girard Park
is move-in ready and waiting for its new owners to make this special house a home. From the
second you approach this traditional stone-built home you just know this one is going to be
special. The mix of old-world charm with a modern flair is noticed throughout. Original details
such as the stone front porch, Terra Cotta roof, original wood front door, polished brass
handrails and pocket doors can’t be missed. Upon entering the freshly painted main living area
you are greeted by a one-of-a-kind custom Carrera marble wood burning fireplace. This wide-
open floorplan continues to flow into the dining room with newly updated flooring in both
living room and dining room and then flows into the kitchen. This completely custom kitchen is
a dream. High end, hand-picked granite countertops sit upon beautiful custom wood cabinetry
complete with a stainless-steel appliance package including a built-in microwave and Viking
stove and a pot filler. You will fall in love with the GLASS basket weave backsplash with
underlighting, porcelain flooring and modern porcelain tiled accent wall. A half bath finishes off
this beautiful space. Just beyond the kitchen is a 4-season room area currently being used as an
office with mini split system for heat and A/C. Out back you will find a very large yard which
also features a 550 sq ft composite deck with removable canvas awning and enough space to
entertain all the family and friends you can imagine. Next, lets head upstairs where we will find
3 large bedrooms with plenty of closet space and full hall bath along. One of the bedrooms is
currently a guest bedroom and the other bedroom is being used as a dressing room complete
with a custom-built closet. Walk to the end of the hall where you will enter the primary
bedroom which has access to a 3 rd outdoor space facing the park to enjoy your morning coffee
or just escape and get some fresh air. I promise you will not be disappointed when you slide
open the pocket door to find a full ensuite bathroom complete with a jetted tub with heated
jets, an overhead rain shower, and front shower and a dressing room! Finally let’s head
down to the fully finished basement. This full footprint was thoughtfully laid out and not only
includes plenty of additional living space, but it also has its own powder room, separate laundry
room/pantry, large walk in cedar closet and a wine cellar, yes a WINE CELLAR!! With only 18
homes on this block as well as having the park you will never have to search for a parking spot . Close to all major highways and public transportation getting around town is a breeze. If you’re a discerning buyer not looking for a cookie cutter renovation, then this may be the one you have been waiting for.
