Property Description
STUNNING AND RARE 2bed/2bath stone bungalow in Westwood Park that is truly one-of-a-kind, not just for its unparalleled rough-hewn gorgeous Missouri River limestone construction on the outside, but also the perfect marriage inside of original and new. Built in 1916 before the neighborhood developed around it, the house was inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement and incorporates many elements, from the porticos over the front and back doors to the gleaming ceiling beams in the dining room. Languishing in absentee ownership for years, this home was thankfully acquired by a neighborhood builder and devout bungalow preserver who thoughtfully refurbished it. He tackled the hard tasks (eg sewer, tuckpointing, electrical, driveway, porch), all while improving upon the original footprint to allow for modern living. Enter into a warm and inviting open living room/dining room, complete with fireplace and revitalized original hardwoods, seamlessly leading to the open brand new gourmet kitchen with beautiful custom cabinetry and a sparkling gas range that any cook would love. The hallway leads to the primary ensuite, wide enough for a king size bed, with a well-planned walk-in closet AND a spacious bathroom with double vanity and walk-in shower. Further down the hall the second bedroom is flooded with natural light from the backyard and the closet includes laundry/dryer connections, to complement the original utility room in the basement. The second full bath, in the hallway just outside the second bedroom, strategically doubles as a powder room for guests. Last but not least, the back of the kitchen leads to a beautiful new deck looking out over a no hassle backyard. Mere blocks from coffee, gelato, chocolate and flowers at the Shops at Westwood Hills, and a stone's throw from multiple schools, health clubs and the Plaza, it's modern living with character and panache.
