Listed on both the National and Kirkwood Historic Registers, this 1861 estate seamlessly blends timeless architectural heritage with sophisticated, modern details. Passing through the gracious covered front porch, you are greeted by a light-filled center hall layout featuring soaring 9’+ ceilings, intricate historic millwork, and beautifully restored original hardwood floors. With its elegant fireplace, gorgeous windows, and built-in bookcases the living room has been adapted to provide the best of casual sophistication, with a stunning sunlit office/bonus room adjoining.
