Built in 1923

2 houses on 1 lot! Step back in time as you stroll the meandering garden path through this enchanting property. Both homes were built in 1923, with the cottage housing its architect, builder, while the craftsmen constructed his model home. Enter the main house through the graceful entrance on Birdsall, and get swept away by its striking period design. A wall of vintage windows highlights the living room with its artisan tiled fireplace. The dining room opens with a set of French doors to a scalloped seating area and stairs that lure you into the gorgeous, professionally landscaped gardens. A completely renovated kitchen shows off its new cabinets, countertops, tiled backsplash and new appliances, which blend seamlessly with the original art deco details throughout the home. 3 beds and 1 full bath serve the main floor, 2 of which have glass doors to the garden. The grand primary suite takes up the top level and has a fully remodeled bath. Sun-washed during the day and 2 large sitting balconies on both sides to enjoy the sunsets by night. The cottage has its own gated driveway and entrance on Camden but also offers a gate between the homes which make it a perfect family compound too. Highlights include new kitchen, 2 beds/1 bath, new plank flooring, and private gardens and patios.
