About This Home

As of April 2016

Two local artists loved living minutes from Downtown. So,they took an ordinary 4 BDRM, 2 BATH home and transformed it into a Custom-Built 21st century showplace. Home is updated to create the coolest living space for today's lifestyle. The magic starts when you turn down the tree-lined street in a hidden GR neighborhood. But you're transported to the ''artist within'' when you open the door. Guaranteed to inspire! Here's a taste of details. Wide knotty pine plank floors, an open ''greater room'' anchored on each end by gas fireplaces, sliders to a secret garden with trellis, pergola, privacy fence, shed, koi pond and greenery. Chef kitchen has shiny white GE appliances, tile counters, exposed ductwork and more. Multiple laundry hook ups. On demand hot water. See flyer for list of updates.
