Property Description
Set along the picturesque curves of Minnehaha Parkway, with sweeping, tree-lined views of Minnehaha Creek, this exceptional Mediterranean-style residence is a rare architectural offering - designed and build by Ella Pendergast. Both distinctive and timeless, the home seamlessly blends original natural setting. From the moment you enter, graceful, vaulted arches, vintage red quarry tile, wrought-iron accents, and newly refinished hardwood floors create a sense warmth, artistry, and enduring style--framed by light and views that connect the interior to the landscape beyond. You will be completely 'wowed' by the Palladian archway foyer that leads into the home. To the foyer's left, the large main living room is both sophisticated and welcoming, thoughtfully designed to capture light and scenery. Anchored by a beautiful fireplace and framed by two flanking windows, the space is elevated by a dramatic five-window bay that draws in natural light and offers captivating views of the creek and parkway. Coved ceilings, custom built-ins and intricate wrought-iron detailing, hallmarks of Pendergast's refined approach to form and function. Just off the living room, a richly paneled den offers a more intimate retreat, complete with new carpet and rounded French doors that open to the backyard--perfect for quiet evenings, reading, or a beautifully appointed home office. At the rear of the elegant entry, a versatile open room with windows to the backyard, matching built-ins, and refinished hardwood floors adapt effortlessly to your needs - ideal as a den, media room, or future open kitchen expansion space. The generous formal dining room is a true showpiece, reimagined for today's lifestyle while honoring its architectural roots. Anchored by a stunning rose frieze crown molding, the space reflects both artistry and craftsmanship. French doors open to a walkout front terrace overlooking Minnehaha Creek, creating an extraordinary setting for entertaining, al fresco dining, or simply enjoying the tree-lined views. Hardwood floors, classic paned doors, and vintage lighting complete this unforgettable space. The kitchen is designed as an ideal working space, offering abundant cabinetry, expansive counter space, and a pantry with extra-deep storage. An adjoining sun-filled informal dining area provides a warm and functional gathering space with direct access to the backyard for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A conveniently located powder room completes the main level. Upstairs is four generously sized bedrooms, each featuring hardwood floors, distinctive architectural details, and all include windows on two sides that fill the spaces with natural lights. The hallway is equally impressive, featuring built-in cabinetry, arched openings, and original wrought-iron railings - continuing the home's cohesive architectural narrative. The owner's suite, overlooking the creek, is bright and spacious, with four windows, elegant picture-frame molding, and an ensuite bath featuring beautifully preserved original tile. A fully remodeled hallway bathroom adds modern luxury with a soaking tub, new vanity, and tiled walk-in shower. The large front bedroom showcases charming French windows with sculpted architectural detailing while another bedroom offers access to a private upper-level deck overlooking the backyard. The LL extends the home's livability with a cozy family room featuring custom built-ins, a gas fireplace, and a beautifully designed bar with extensive wine storage system, perfectly suited for collectors and effortless entertaining. This inviting, separate space is ideal for kids, family gatherings, or hosting friends. A mudroom provides direct access to the garage, while a large laundry room and additional storage spaces complete the level. The outdoor spaces are truly inviting, featuring a private backyard that offers versatility for entertaining, relaxing, or gardening. Enjoy a spacious patio area bordered by an elegant flagstone retaining wall.
