Presenting The Gustav of 1917, in honor of Gustav Stickley's undimmed influence on the Arts & Crafts movement, exemplified here in this brilliantly sorted Craftsman. The Gustav is rich with original details that showcase the aesthetic peak of the Craftsman era: a sconce-lit fireplace inglenook designed for winter respite, 110-year-old millwork in cherry condition, and glass-fronted oak built-ins with decorative muntins in the living room, dining room, and den. This well-sorted Craftsman has all its rare trimmings intact, making it a blueprint example of its kind. The Gustav's sprawling layout is conducive to family life and hosting, with three main floor living spaces, a formal dining room, a vestibule entry, and a rear mud room. The kitchen was recently updated with a ceramic tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and new countertops. The powder bathroom has original keystone tile, accentuated with a cohesive wallpaper and paint scheme. The upper-level full bathroom has been trimmed out with paneling, paper, paint, period-correct sconces, and refinished hardware. The red oak hardwood floors on the main level were fully restored with a custom stain cocktail and matte finish. The Gustav's original windows are all MAC treated behind Mon-Ray storms. The home has a dedicated central A/C handler in the attic and an updated boiler in the large, unfinished basement. The sunny backyard is ample for gardening and play, and is fully enclosed with a cedar privacy fence and gate. The private driveway leads to a generous three-car garage. Quick close preferred.
