Property Description

Photos 6/2! One of the most commanding examples of Colonial Revival architecture in the Riverside Annex from the 1900's-1920's period, this remarkable 5 bedroom, 4/5 bath 1911 residence offers 3,677 square feet in the main house and 527 sf in the guest house for a total of over 4,200 sf of living space. The home beautifully blends historic character with extensive modern upgrades. Originally built for John Faulkner, a respected farrier, the stately front entry porch opens into a sweeping wraparound veranda adorned with a balustrade of lathe-turned spindles, while distinctive geometric window patterns further highlight the home's architectural significance. Recognized with a Restoration Award in 2009, the property showcases extraordinary craftsmanship throughout, including extensive millwork, original pocket doors, an elegant bannister, original hardwood floors on the first and second levels, soaring 10-foot ceilings downstairs, and a classic brick fireplace. (See supplement) Spanning three stories plus a finished basement, the home offers multiple living spaces designed for both comfortable daily living and impressive entertaining. The updated kitchen is appointed with marble countertops, a large island, real wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, an oversized pantry, a newer refrigerator, dual-fuel range with gas cooktop and convection double ovens, and a new microwave installed in 2024. Updated marble bathrooms add luxury throughout, including an oversized primary suite with a whirlpool bathtub and a spa-inspired shower featuring triple shower heads and Bluetooth-controlled speakers. A guest en-suite offers both a standup shower and soaking tub, while the finished attic bedroom adds additional flexibility and charm.
Modern infrastructure and technology upgrades have been thoughtfully integrated, including updated electrical and plumbing systems completed in 2008, a replaced electrical panel in 2021, Cat 5 and speaker wiring throughout, recessed lighting, all new light fixtures, spray foam insulation, a Broadview security system with three Ring doorbells, a wall safe, and newer first- and third-floor windows. Additional updates include a tankless gas water heater installed in 2021, upstairs air conditioning replaced in 2021, and guest house AC replaced in 2020. The finished basement features a full-size laundry room, French drains, a new sump pump installed in 2026, and convenient exterior cellar-door access. A commercial-grade treadmill and rowing machine also convey with the property.
The exterior grounds are equally impressive. Recent 2026 improvements include new roofs, two chimney caps, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a newly refurbished yard with fresh sod and rock landscaping. The expansive wraparound covered porch was updated in 2023 and features ceiling fans, while Trex decking enhances the portico balcony. Situated on a private corner lot within the historic district, the property includes a privacy wall and fencing, irrigation well with yard irrigation, outdoor patio lighting, French drains, a productive lemon tree, termite bond coverage, and covered outdoor parking separate from the garage.
A 527 square foot detached guest house and two-car garage were added in 2016, creating exceptional versatility for guests, rental potential, or a private studio retreat. The studio apartment guest house includes its own dedicated covered entrance, while the garage features automatic doors on both sides for convenient pull-through access from the paved alleyway, along with shelving, storage units, and an additional storage closet.
Located just one block from the river with no flood insurance required, this exceptional property offers easy interstate access and is within walking distance to Avondale shops, Five Points, King Street, local hospitals, nearby parks, the community garden, and the library.
