Description
Pedigree, location and space are three words that sum up this incredible Hyde Park house. Built at the turn of the last century, the home was designed by Pond & Pond. These architects sought a distinctive American style, freed from the constraints of European influences and historic references. The Pond brothers produced work that displayed a deep reverence for the concepts of famed architect Louis Sullivan, and received commissions in the Hyde Park neighborhood as university professors selected these architects precisely because they represented a new school of thinking. The 9 highly detailed fireplaces, generously proportioned rooms and extraordinary woodwork provide a backdrop for the next owner to update the solidly built house for the current century. Six bedrooms, two offices, three full and one half baths, kitchen (with Butler's pantry) facing a lovely yard and off-street parking are just a mention of the features the house offers. And, as we all have discovered during the past year, the importance of carving out space- both indoors and out - for work, play, study and relaxation is paramount. This home offers room for all. Located quite near the university and the Laboratory Schools this has been a remarkable family home for generations. And it is a once in many decades opportunity to call it your own.
