Property Description
1837 S 16th represents all that is exciting about Newbold. Owned by an architect and an artist, it captures an understated soulfulness in an age of bland renovations and gray on gray new construction. Entirely renovated shortly after purchase in 2016, this home was revived rather than rehabbed. Wanting to bring the property in closer touch with it's original character, charming details like the fireplace, mantelpiece, wooden banisters, original trim, and french doors were kept and are now highlights of the aesthetic. Every inch of the home has been touched by renovation. Extensive alterations to the original kitchen expanded it's foot print and added windows and natural light. Dark blue custom painted cabinets with brass hardware are set off by clean white tile back splashes and warm butcher block counters. The custom porcelain tile mosaic floor nods to tradition with it's classic yet re-imagined checkerboard pattern. Bias laid white oak floors run throughout the first and second floor. Tall ceilings and generous proportions lend an airy feel. There is forced air central HVAC complemented by 3 zone ductless units upstairs. The expanded bathroom features unique tile floors, detailed tile surround, and custom fern leaf stenciled border. Nautically themed mural details adorn the upstairs hall, continuing in the middle bedroom where whimsical animal character greet you. The large rear bedroom has bright bay windows bringing in loads of sunlight, framed by a decorative archway with original trim details. The primary bedroom is spacious and bright with an inset around the bed lending a comforting sense of coziness. The back patio featuring more original artwork, water permeable pavers to mitigate storm water, a new stucco surround on the original masonry, architectural fence and custom planters designed to provide a view of lively greenery as you look through the house and out the rear windows. The basement is spacious and tall, currently used as a work space and storage. The owners have plans for a spa like bath complete with steam shower should the new owners decide to explore that as an option.
