About This Home
Blending historic charm and modern comfort, this 1940s Melrose Heights home stands on a spacious corner lot in one of Columbia's most coveted neighborhoods. This fully renovated home has beautiful original hardwoods, a modern updated kitchen with large walk-in pantry, high-end stainless steel appliances, and a custom island/bar. High ceilings and moldings throughout give this home a premium and spacious feel, as do the twin ornamental fireplaces in the formal living and dining rooms; custom floor-to-ceiling bookcases; and numerous integrated built-ins, including a hideaway bar and a dedicated coffee bar—all perfect for entertaining.
The primary bedroom is a serene, private retreat, complete with a large walk-in closet, ensuite bath, and separate den. Bedrooms two and three (one with another large, walk-in closet) are privately located away from the primary suite, and share a hall bathroom. Outside, the fenced-in outdoor living areas feature a custom, low maintenance hardscape patio, a separate (and extremely private) spa area, and a convenient outdoor shed.
Premium landscape lighting and multiple zones of outdoor speakers (integrated into the home's custom whole-home audio system with built-in speakers throughout) all contribute to making this home an entertainer's dream, inside and out. Adding to this home's distinctive appeal are double driveways with ample off-street parking—a rarity in this neighborhood! The huge front yard and side yard are pre-approved for fencing, should you want to mimic other homes in the neighborhood with a classic front-yard picket fence.
This tree lined neighborhood is zoned for award-winning schools and is easily walk-able to Dreher High School, Melrose Park, and the dining and shopping of Devine Street and Millwood Avenue. Recent improvements include a new hot water heater and fresh paint throughout, making this a truly turn-key property. The previous family loved living here for the past ten years in the famously welcoming neighborhood of Melrose Heights (see their Sellers’ Letter on the MLS for more fun info!
