About This Home
As of February 2025This is an incredible opportunity in the Highlands just steps from the Douglas Loop to complete what the sellers have started with this custom rebuild and expansion on a super unique lot. Located at the corner of Dundee Road and Woodbourne Avenue, this Cape Cod home was taken down to the studs, significantly expanded on the main level with an excavation on the north end of the lot and the second floor was opened up with dormers and a new roof line. All of this was done to maintain the original 1940s floor plan on the interior walls while expanding space through dormering the entire second floor and adding a two-story addition that is in keeping with the style of the rest of the house. This rebuild perfectly incorporates modern design and functionality with a traditional 1940's home. The structure now features 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms with one of the bedrooms on the first floor. The main level features a new front porch, new custom front door (not yet installed), living room with fireplace, a gorgeous wide-open great room, large kitchen space, a first-floor bedroom and a full bath. The existing side porch faces south and has been preserved to retain the character of the home. The seller has new custom French doors for the side porch that are ready to install. The kitchen was also designed with a new exterior door positioned on the west side of the home, intended to walk out onto a deck and rear alcove. The location and dimensions of the deck are included in the architectural plan and require no set-back variance from the city. The sellers also installed a custom retaining stonewall on the west and north of the property that perfectly encloses a walkway to the north and potential patio to the west... Upstairs are 4 bedrooms including a primary suite with primary bath, walk in closet, balcony for screened in porch, and an adjacent tucked away study or office nook that is illuminated by 2 skylights for stargazing. The primary bath was designed with a unique tub alcove. Details available upon request. The south-facing upstairs bedroom has a stunning custom 48" circular window that keeps a watchful eye on the neighborhood and mirrors the facade of the townhouse across the street, integrating the home with the new construction of the neighborhood. All three of the non-primary bedrooms are designed to have built-in drawers in the knee walls, maximizing the storage on the second floor. The walk-out basement has 2 original living spaces that were previously used as a family room and office, storage space, laundry and mechanicals. The seller installed a 4-well geothermal system in 2021, including 2 80-gallon commercial water heaters and a state-of-the-art Bosch air handler as a part of the rebuild. Additional geothermal details available upon request. Completed work includes new energy-efficient, double pane, aluminum clad windows throughout. The modern, stylish, oversized black windows were selected to match the original home's style and their placement was adjusted by the seller to maximize light and the view of the tree canopy while providing privacy from street views. You'll notice that the windows are enlarged and slightly raised on the first floor. A new roof and spray foam insulation were also already completed. Regarding the home's landscape, the sellers excavated a considerable amount of landscape rock from one of the original driveway walls and repurposed it on both the Woodbourne and Dundee sides of the property. Additional unused rock is available and was intended to finish the landscape outside the kitchen. The lot includes approximately 3' of land to the north of the stonewall which allows for planting above the wall to provide a functional living privacy fence from the only adjacent neighboring house. So much thought, care and detail has gone into this house through a collaboration between the architect, designer, homeowner and contractor. The next owner will be the beneficiary of the enormous amount of expertise that has gone into this home's design and rebuild to date. This is a great candidate for a renovation loan and renovation loan information is available upon request. Don't miss your chance to complete this remarkable rebuild in the heart of the Highlands.
