Listed by Phoebe Martin of Blank & McCune Real Estate
We are proud to present this stately home, an instantly recognizable Iowa City landmark for sale for the first time in over 65 years. The verdant, pie-shaped lot draws the eye right to the porches and gables of this 1910 classic with its signature bronze piano player sculpture. This home has been carefully updated and enlarged over the years, winning a historic preservation award for the 2003 additions that added a 2-story marble foyer, a 5-stop elevator, main floor laundry, storage and a large office with heated Brazilian cherry floors and cherry cabinetry. The main floor is a mix of the old and the new, with parlors and sitting rooms leading to the delightful wrap-around porch and a large galley kitchen with downdraft stove, trash compactor, and pantry. Don't miss the clever built in blender and wall-mounted toaster! The main also has a sitting room/en-suite bedroom behind grand pocket doors with large closets and a full bath. Upstairs there is a bathroom with unique recessed shower as well as four more bedrooms, including the primary with soaking tub, bountiful closets, elevator access and balcony/fire escape access. There are two basement levels, where you'll find a wet bar, lots of unfinished storage and central vac. The heated sidewalk leads to the 2 garages, one of which is heated & large enough for an RV or workshop.
