About This Home
As of August 2016This grand Queen Anne Romanesque Revival home sits on a perch overlooking historic Melville Avenue's architectural gems. Long a local landmark, it was designed by City Architect Arthur H. Vinal for his family and has been respectfully cared for by the current owners for over fifty years. Spectacular museum quality features include 10' coved ceilings, four intricately carved tiled fireplaces, parquet flooring with elaborate inlays and a grand Tara staircase rising to a stunning stained glass window bay (there are 31 stained glass window panels in the home). The opulent dining room of Moorish design with applied plaster tiled walls, built-ins and a large stained glass window nook framed by a Syrian arch is the star of the show. Showings by appointment.
