1921 was a rich period in American history, ushering in the Roaring Twenties - and opulent indulgences for those with means, looking to define the then nascent suburbs - creating unique sanctuaries from city life. This custom-built home blends flourishes of bungalow/cottage/craftsman" details, creating a charming example of Allentown s Deep West End evolution. Massive double-lot, set back from the street, uniquely bespoke characteristics of this home speak to both its grandeur, whimsy and intimacy - exemplified by the unique juxtaposition of the fireplace-anchored living room and subtlety dramatic sweeping staircase - leading to the mid-level study, overlooking gardens. Restored with practicality - but renovated with neutral finishes (kitchen/baths/monochromatic paint scheme) and new mechanicals (electric/plumbing/HVAC) to enable visionaries to execute their lifestyle interpretations. Refinished inlaid hardwood floors throughout. Restored operational divided light windows. Stunning bathrooms/kitchen. Whether entertaining Gatsby-style in the formal dining room overlooking the terrace, escaping through the pocket door to the hidden library or kicking 'em back in the Prohibition-era Copper Penny basement speakeasy - you're surrounded by properties of architectural distinction. Awaiting a discerning Buyer who values irreplaceable quality/heritage/style in a historically significant neighborhood. 2-car garage to rear with oversized off-alley land to expand.
