Step into timeless elegance with this meticulously restored Prairie-style home, originally designed in 1909 by renowned architect Frederick German. Known as the Silberstein House, this property blends historic charm with contemporary luxury across 5+ bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and multiple versatile living spaces. From the moment you arrive, the stately brick exterior and freshly painted trim set the tone for exceptional craftsmanship. The award-winning landscaping, designed by Kent G. Worley, features a serene pond, stream, and lush gardens, complemented by a Palram greenhouse and a full sprinkler system. Situated on a rare one-third acre corner lot (three parcels), this property offers privacy and beauty in every season.
Inside, natural light pours through new Marvin and Anderson windows, illuminating gleaming hardwood floors and exquisite woodwork. The expansive living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, provides an inviting space for relaxation or entertaining. Adjacent, the formal dining room showcases built-in cabinetry and stunning stained-glass windows—crafted by the same artisan behind Glensheen Mansion. The heart of the home is the Rebecca Lindquist-designed kitchen, a harmonious blend of historic character and modern convenience. Featuring high-end appliances, natural stone countertops, and custom cabinetry, this space is a chef’s dream. Bathrooms throughout the home have been thoughtfully remodeled with premium finishes.
