Winnetka Heights Historic District Own an impressive piece of history without experiencing the pain of renovation….it’s all been completed for you!
Freshly renovated by Aston Custom Homes and Design, this Prairie style Foursquare sits proudly on a commanding corner lot in the popular Winnetka Heights Historic District. It offers the charm of yesterday as well as the timeless amenities of today. It comes complete with an updated Guest House over a 3 car garage and the bonus of the City of Dallas 10 Year Historic Tax Abatement.
The entire exterior was painstakingly restored including the wraparound porch. The interior of the home was taken down to the studs. Insulation was added to all exterior walls. Many of the interior walls were reconfigured to create a light, bright open floor plan well suited for today’s lifestyle.
Great care was taken to preserve and restore the original heart pine floors in the formal areas. To enhance the beauty and warmth of the interior, hardwood flooring was added to all the re¬maining primary rooms while tile and marble were chosen for the baths. Other details were not overlooked. Period style doors, hardware and trim were used throughout. The interior staircase was beautifully finished out while a powder bath and coat closet were cleverly tucked beneath. Counting those in the Guest House there is a total of 7 ceiling fans.
The architect wisely provided for ample storage. All bedrooms contain excellent well-lit closets. Entire plumbing and electrical systems were replaced. Highly efficient zoned central heat and air and a Noritz tankless water heater were installed. Central HVAC was added also to the Guest House. Even the old sewer line was replaced…all the way from the main dwelling to the City con¬nection at the alleyway.
The formals are grand. A high end gas log fireplace, equipped with an electric blower and igniter, anchors the north end of the formal living room. Glass front bookcases sit on either side. The formal dining room is wonderfully spacious, ready to accommodate large dinner parties and celebrations.
The Island Kitchen features handsome cabinetry, honed marble and soapstone countertops, a French apron sink, a corner pantry, a glass tiled backsplash, pendant lighting accents, profes¬sional JennAir® stainless steel appliances and a built-in microwave with a child lock that can function as a warming drawer as well. The kitchen opens to the den and, from the den, there is clean, clear access, through double French doors, to the fenced back yard.
The upper level Master Bedroom spans the entire width of the home ensuring plenty of natural light and comfortable sitting area space. The Master Bath features an elegant clawfoot tub made of cast iron, a pair of solid wood marble topped vanities, a separate glass shower and an enormous walk-in closet.
