About This Home

As of June 2022

Cool doesn’t even begin to describe this impressive Heights home! The 2016 renovation and expansion by award winning Kinney Morrow Architects reimagined the existing 1890s structure comprising of 3 interconnected “pods” based on the footprint of the original house all seamlessly connected by walls of windows overlooking a relaxing covered patio and extensive grounds. If you are looking for something unique, a perfect blend of historic and modern, and clean line styling you would expect to see in an art gallery, this is the home for you! Custom features throughout including white oak paneling, extra loft spaces for additional storage & living areas, 20ft Western Windows sliding glass door opening to the cover patio (think indoor/outdoor California-style living!), whole house water filtration system, 3-phase power with high efficiency commercial grade 3 zone heating/cooling system and tankless hot water heater. This entertainer’s home is also in close proximity to Heights hotspots!
