Home Details
Presenting the 1887 Mather House. An exceptionally rare property in the East End Historic District, situated on the corner of 16th & Ball encompassing two full lots. The grounds are impressive, well shaded and hidden with mature trees, extensive green space, and the resort level pool and patio. This home experienced a full 3 year restoration, leaving no detail untouched, which resulted in multiple awards. With 4 bedrooms & 3.5 baths, featuring 3 working fireplaces, a true chef's kitchen with Sub Zero & Thermador appliances, exquisite original woodwork and floors, double dutch front doors, massive covered porches, operational shutters, and two laundry facilities. The connected ground floor level could be its own private suite if desired, complete with its own kitchen and laundry, or remain as a casual living space. The detached two car garage provides off street parking and storage as well as the ability to build out above into a separate apartment, office or retain as ample storage.
