About this property

A 1912 Tudor in the Skinker-DeBaliviere neighborhood that checks every box— historic character, modern finishes, and space that actually works. Step inside and the house flows. The living room is wide and bright, anchored by decorative fireplaces and windows with natural lighting in the space. It opens to a dining room worth slowing down in — coffered ceiling, wainscoting, generous windows, and original stained glass. From there, a warm kitchen with newer cabinets, countertops, tile and appliances. Hardwood runs throughout, save the sunroom and baths. Beyond the kitchen, a sunroom extension wrapped in windows: a bonus room that works as an office, a studio or a reading room, with a half bath, laundry and extra cabinetry built in alongside it. Upstairs, the primary bedroom fills with natural light and opens into a massive primary bath with a freestanding soaking tub, marble floor tile and a marble shower. Stained glass appears again at the stair landing and in the hallway bath. Above that, the third floor is a spacious retreat of its own — a fourth bedroom, a studio, an office, whatever the year calls for. 2,606 square feet across two and a half stories: four bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a main-floor powder room, and sunroom. Beneath it all, a full unfinished basement — storage now, room to grow into later. Furnace, central air and water heater were replaced in 2023–2024; the kitchen and baths were finished out in 2026. Outside, the 1912 face is intact: brick, half-timbered gable, clay barrel-tile roof, and a front porch with a second-floor balcony that opens up from the primary bedroom. Beautifully landscaped and a rear porch overlooks a generous backyard behind wood privacy fencing. An enclosed two-car garage sits off the alley — covered, private parking on a block where some homes make do with the street. Historic bones, modern comfort, and a location that usually asks you to compromise. Here you don't.
