About This Home

As of May 2025

Explore this iconic tudor built by Otto Schoitz in the exclusive Kingbard Hill neighborhood. Situated on a double lot with mature trees, gorgeous greenery and stacked rock wall, this stunning 4 bed, 2.5 bath home is a breathtaking example of the lost art of true craftsmanship. The exterior brick and stone architecture captures your imagination with intricate detail and style. When you enter through the wrought iron gates at the front door, you are greeted by a grand staircase and foyer. The ornate vintage light fixtures compliment the various cove moldings and window pane trim work. Enjoy the expansive great room with original Italian marble fireplace, floor to ceiling windows and 9 foot ceilings. The hardwood floors gleam in the sunlight, and the main floor is complimented with a second family room and butlers pantry. The kitchen has many modern updates such as stainless appliances, marble counters and custom cabinetry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large informal dining area and mudroom. The main floor guest lavatory is a whimsical reminder of the Art Deco era. As you ascend the grand staircase to the second level, three of the bedrooms are situated to one end near the classic pink pearl bathroom. The main bedroom, walk in closet and bath are privately situated on the opposite end of the floor plan. The second floor solarium provides an added living space with endless possibilities. The two car garage entry is secluded from the alleyway. The backyard boasts sunlight with the southern exposure and firelight from the fire pit feature in the pergola. The lower level has ample storage, a wine cellar, and extra half bath, and a recreation room with a fireplace. Updated HVAC and electrical panel make this classic home a modern comfort. The durability of the steel roof has a 50 year life span. There are simply not enough words to capture the detail and wonder of this beautiful home. Schedule your tour today.
