Heights home offers vintage appeal

-

Built in 1940, this one-of-a-kind Tudor-style home saw a remodel in 2000 that created a new kitchen and added an additional 1,200 square feet to the now four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home that encompasse­s 2.5 lots in Little Rock’s Heights neighborho­od.

Beautiful architectu­ral details such as arched doorways, exposed brick walls, an arched ceiling, and vintage tile and hardwood floors and trim, along with exterior amenities such as a large private backyard, a vine-covered pergola, a mossy brick patio area and a stone walkway, give this home a classic allure.

The foyer area features earth-tone tile, a chandelier, and white crown molding and foot trim, as well as an alcove with a diamond-paned window. In the formal living room, there are built-in bookcases, a large fireplace, built-in armoire-style closets and a wet bar.

In the family room, there is a second fireplace accented by tile surroundin­gs and a wood mantel. The open-feel family room is connected to the updated kitchen, which includes a separate breakfast nook and a larger eating area, in addition to a large pantry, a built-in desk and a central island. The kitchen countertop­s feature beautiful, durable concrete, and ample shelving maximizes storage space.

The home’s remodel included the addition of a second-floor master retreat that features a gas fireplace, as well as built-in shelves and cabinetry. The walkthroug­h double closet is located between the bedroom and the master bathroom, which includes a vanity between double sinks, and a separate tub and shower. The master suite also provides access to a private upstairs deck.

Three other bedrooms are situated on the lower level, one of which has an en-suite bathroom. Another bedroom is somewhat distanced from the rest of the home and features its own bathroom.
