About this home
This 1913 historic McEldowney House #2 is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained 5 bedroom, 1-1/2 bath 3,753 sq ft piece of local history without need for full restoration. Lovingly cared for by only four owners in over a century, this 5-bedroom Craftsman blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Stunning original glass-front built-ins anchor the living room and formal dining room, while bespoke leaded glass tulip windows cast rainbows across the home on sunny afternoons. Rich dark and moody millwork, original pocket doors, refinished fir floors, and historically accurate street-facing windows preserve the soul of the era at nearly every turn. The recently updated chef’s kitchen offers modern convenience while honoring the home’s historic integrity with a 4-drawer refrigerated island, pot filler, and period-inspired finishes. Nearly every fixture, doorknob, and cabinet pull is original or carefully sourced to match the period, and the seller has original-style push-button switches available for the next steward wishing to continue the restoration journey. Bedrooms all feature deep built-ins and walk-in closets rarely found in homes of this age. An enclosed sleeping porch, temperature-consistent pantry or wine room, and basement family room previously piped for a wood or pellet stove. Electrical and plumbing have been updated, allowing you to enjoy historic living with modern peace of mind. Outside, the grounds feel like a storybook garden with dark, light, and white lilacs, fig, pear, and quince trees, and a climbing rose bush you can take in from the hot tub. Even the original basement door remains intact as another nod to the home’s extraordinary preservation. If you’ve dreamed of owning an authentic historic Craftsman where the charm, craftsmanship, and restoration work have already been lovingly preserved, the McEldowney House #2 is a truly special slice of history....
