Property Description
Masterfully conceived and crafted over a century ago, this residence reflects an era when every detail was executed to the highest Euro-American standards. Lovingly stewarded for decades, the current owner has thoughtfully enhanced the home with a sun-drenched solarium, beautifully remodeled baths, and numerous significant upgrades—while preserving its original character.
The grounds are nothing short of extraordinary. Created by a master gardener, they have evolved into Sherwood Forest's own botanical sanctuary, celebrated with countless accolades and awards. Every path, planting, and vista is curated to inspire.
Inside, the home reveals a collection of irreplaceable architectural treasures. A breathtaking barrel-vaulted great room anchored by a stunning fireplace. An expansive dining room awash in natural light. A heated conservatory that offers year-round serenity. Together, they create a true retreat for both entertaining and everyday living.
A main-floor bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests, aging in place, or convenient single-level living. The charming gallery connecting the secondary entry and kitchen invites relaxed moments—perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The well-designed kitchen offers an ideal work triangle, abundant storage, and picturesque garden views.
Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms await, including an oversized primary with generous closets, a bright and cheerful secondary room, and a truly unforgettable showpiece: an authentic Pullman train car replica, commissioned by the original Missouri Pacific Railroad executive owner—a conversation piece unlike anything else.
Additional highlights include a substantial lower level for storage and an attached garage.
Homes of this caliber, provenance, and distinction rarely come to market. This is more than a residence—it's a legacy.
Hold on! There's more! Don't miss the enchanting free standing Gardener's Tea Room/getaway/at home office!
