About This Home

As of May 2024

A love letter to a bygone era, this enchanting 1930 manor is full of delightful surprises sure to elevate your experience of daily living. While the beautiful exterior and interior detailing is classically Tudor, modern luxuries and smart-home features abound thanks to a masterful top-to-bottom renovation that artfully merges past and present. What's more, the peaceful, highly walkable locale is prized for its many character homes, majestic trees on wide streets, and proximity to Lacy Park and award-winning schools. Among the home's many vintage grace notes, you'll find lustrous woodwork throughout, exposed antique beams, gothic arched doorways, stained glass window accents, and a grand staircase. The beautifully updated showcase kitchen with Viking appliances is spacious and swoon-worthy, but the family room is truly the heart of the home. Here you'll enjoy indoor-outdoor living at its finest as an entire window wall disappears to provide direct access to the resort backyard. Infrared heating lamps, a roaring fireplace, and ceiling fans make this the perfect setting for all-year enjoyment. Outside, shimmering glass tiles enhance the oversized pool and spa, while a sweeping terrace with a fire pit and built-in grill complete this perfect oasis. Topping it all off, the 2-story guest house and 3-car garage provide ample space for versatile use. From the timeless architecture to the sublime setting to the next-level amenities, your best life awaits you at 1820 Saint Albans Road.
