Property Description
A property like this can take a generation to come to market in Hampden. One of the area's few detached homes, this all-brick, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence sits beautifully atop a hill on one of Hampden's largest lots. Gardens cultivated over many years, an income-producing rental suite, and a modern custom-built garage with additional parking make this an unusually complete offering.
A gardener's paradise surrounds the home, with landscaping, flowers, and planting beds lovingly tended over many years. The welcoming wraparound porch and deck capture southern and western sunset views, offering an inviting place to enjoy the grounds. A custom-built railing provides the first glimpse of the artistry within.
Inside, the care and creativity of an artist and a master craftsman have shaped a home of unmistakable warmth and personality. Custom woodwork with metal inlay, thoughtful architectural details, and beautiful historic character make each space feel special. An updated bath with generous storage complements the home's craftsmanship with everyday comfort.
An independently metered suite with its own kitchen and full bath is currently tenant-occupied, providing an existing income stream. With its own private entrance completely separate from the main home, the suite feels discreet and self-contained, preserving the privacy and feel of the primary residence. Its configuration also offers future flexibility for a private office, extended family, guests, or additional living space.
On the lower level, a former storefront with striking floor-to-ceiling windows offers an inspiring setting for an art studio, workshop, or hobby space.
Equally impressive is the custom-built garage, a modern, light-filled structure fully detached from the home. Oversized and heated, it offers generous space for a car enthusiast, artist, or craftsperson, with room to explore a vehicle lift installation. Two additional off-street parking spaces bring the total to four—a rare convenience in the middle of Hampden.
And the location brings it all together: just blocks from the Rotunda's shops, MOM's Organic Market, and Warehouse Cinemas, as well as the independent boutiques, cafés, and restaurants along 36th Street's The Avenue. Morning errands, dinner out, and a night at the movies are all close to home, placing you in the heart of what makes Hampden such a compelling place to live.
