Built in 1928, this four-bed, three-bath modified stucco Tudor-style home stands apart from other historic homes in Hamilton’s Rossville Historic District, most notably because of its stunning stucco and stone exterior, steep gables, and an elegant arched doorway welcoming guests to its doorstep.
The 2,561-square-foot house sits on a private, shaded double lot. Its lawns are lush with a year-round, professionally landscaped and award-winning blooming garden, which has often been featured on the the City of Hamilton’s Garden Tour. It also sits just a block away from the Main Street Entertainment District—walking distance to the Fitton Center for Creative Arts, Marcum Park and its free outdoor concert series, and the shops and restaurants of High Street Corridor in downtown Hamilton.
Freshly painted in 2023, the stunning creamy white of the stucco makes the vibrant greens of the landscaping pop. A classy black iron fence borders the 7,906-square-foot lot, and a matching iron hitching post, original to the home’s earliest days, still stands curbside, awaiting visitors.
While the classic facade is true to the home’s original 1920s character, one step inside shows how well today’s updates fit right in. It offers unique features, such as a warming closet in the upstairs hallway adjacent to the fireplace chimney, designed to keep towels, linens, and blankets pleasantly toasty. The large Rookwood fireplace promises to keep homeowners just as cozy through the winter months. the home even boasts a professional dark room, used to process photographic film.
While the character of the home provides an aesthetic draw, the mechanical systems also got updates: New electrical includes updated breakers and a new panel. Two recently installed efficiency furnaces and a redone roof keep the home functioning in an updated fashion.
