Designed by renowned architect Josias Joesler and built by John Murphy for his son Robert. This house was one of Joeslers last residential designs before he passed away in 1956. Working in collaboration with the owners, Hazelbaker Rush & Baer Works updated the home in 2021-2022 with the intention of preserving the historical character while honoring the Architect’s original intentions. Compact in footprint, and spacious in proportions and measure, this home has been thoughtfully updated. Enter through the foyer into a dramatic open plan great room - with a corner fireplace anchoring the room, original pasta tile floors, carved wood beams, and wood ceilings throughout. The seamless transition between the great room, dining area, and kitchen, complemented by adjoining outdoor spaces, makes this home perfect for hosting gatherings and entertaining guests. The kitchen has been updated with custom walnut cabinetry, top-tier appliances, and ample concealed and display storage. The versatile floor plan provides the flexibility of a home office or guest room, strategically separated from the primary bedroom through a split floor plan layout. The primary bedroom offers an en suite bath adorned with tadelakt walls and refined fixtures.
