About This Home
As of September 2023This turn of the century vintage Americana bungalow is one of the most exciting and breathtaking homes to hit the Old Towne market in years. This registered Mills Act 1919 gem has been fully restored and renovated with painstaking attention to detail. The goal was to maintain its historic charm while bringing it current with today’s style and luxury. This home sits on a newly constructed 1600 square foot 9 ft ceiling basement. While not permitted for living square footage, this space provides endless possibilities for the creative mind, and is a one-of-a-kind opportunity in Old Towne Orange. It must be seen to truly appreciate the painstaking effort it took to create this spectacular space. Upon arrival one notes the unique and historic front and side elevations. With two spacious porches, clean elevation lines, and lush landscape, this home hits the minute you pull up. Both porches are spacious and have incredible views of the historic Palmyra and Grand cross street. Enter through an original stunning glass side light front door into the parlor awash with natural light. The exquisite white oak floors, wood beams, and original finish carpentry perfectly ties custom comfort to historic elegance. The views from inside out are exactly what gives Old Towne its charm. The feeling of community from days long past is still present with a simple glance through the massive windows. The front room is finished with original casing, high end custom drapery, new matching wood beams, original glass inlaid pocket doors, and an open concept floorplan that flows with the rest of the home. The dining room is an open concept with the kitchen and boasts a brand-new built in custom cabinet lending elegance to function. The kitchen is spacious and new from top to bottom. Custom cabinets, quartz counters, intricate backsplash, and SS appliances make this kitchen a dream. Beautiful original French doors open to expansive covered porch. Original counterweight windows have been painstakingly rebalanced and refurbished. The primary bedroom boasts coffered ceilings, walk in closet and a spacious brand-new dual vanity master bath complete with dolomite tile, quartz counters, seamless glass shower, and more! Secondary bath is completely with tub/shower, dual vanity, custom cabinetry, quartz counters, polished brass and gold fixtures and dolomite tile.
