Victorian Grandeur Meets Modern Artistry in Highland Park! Step into a residence where Gilded Age elegance dances with bold, contemporary soul. Located in the heart of historic Highland Park, this stately Victorian has been meticulously preserved by one family for decades. The exterior’s classic silhouette gives way to an interior that defies the "white-box" trend. Every corner of this home celebrates saturated, jewel-toned hues that highlight intricate trim, soaring ceilings, and original hardwoods. It is a masterclass in "Modern Victorian"—retaining its historic dignity while embracing a sophisticated, moody palette that feels both cozy and avant-garde. The Grand Dining Room is a true showpiece. With expansive proportions, it effortlessly accommodates a grand piano and a dinner party for ten, making it the ultimate venue for holiday galas or intimate recitals. The kitchen is a functional dream featuring massive working surfaces. It flows seamlessly into a charming eat-in dining space and a classic butler’s pantry, ensuring your hosting is as organized as it is elegant. Throughout the home, large *brand new* windows invite natural light to play across the rich-colored walls, creating a sanctuary that feels expansive yet deeply private. Outside, the property offers rare "room to stretch" in an urban setting. The detached garage is more than just storage—it is a creative sanctuary in waiting. With ample height and skylights, it is perfectly suited for a sun-drenched art studio or a quiet carriage house home office. All this is just a short, leafy stroll from the iconic Highland Park. Enjoy morning jogs around the reservoir, visits to the Pittsburgh Zoo, or weekend picnics in the park’s expansive green spaces, and in walking distance to the boutiques and dining on the other end of Bryant Street. This isn't just a house; it’s a curated lifestyle for those who find beauty in the bold and the historic.
