Property Description
Unique. Stylish. Remarkable. Those are only a few words to describe this BRAND NEW FULL CUSTOM RENOVATION on a beautiful block in the heart of Bella Vista. 726 Catharine Street is a 4 Bedroom, 2 1/2 Bathroom, 2,100/SF home that was stylishly renovated, maintaining it's character while using carefully selected sustainable materials in the process that make this home extremely energy efficient. The brick facade was restored and brand new Pella windows are throughout and make this end of row sun-filled throughout the day. Walk into the first floor onto the original parquet flooring that was hand finished and ebony-stained. The kitchen consists of natural black slate tile, high gloss white cabinetry that extends to the ceiling, showing off an original brick backsplash, exposed plaster and energy efficient Bosch and Liebherr applianced that you will love cooking on. The kitchen countertops are constructed from reclaimed tropical hardwood butcher-block planks that were used as flooring for shipping containers and tractor trailers. A huge bay window and patio sliding doors leading out to a HUGE YARD will shed tons of natural light. In the living room, the built-in furniture, storage and rail guards are constructed from locally sourced reclaimed pine and line the refinished original staircases throughout the home. On the upper levels the original maple flooring was sanded to a new finish and sealed with a Zero-VOC Whey Protein based sealer. At the top of the second floor, an open den area, perfect for entertaining consists of a balconette, glass patio sliding door and a half bath (this can easily be converted into a 5th bedroom). The Master Suite is on the SECOND FLOOR, complete with a Master Bath that consist of natural black slate tile, frameless glass door shower, original apron claw-foot soaking tub, a custom vanity made from a salvaged Mid-Century Modern credenza, an antique mirror and custom light fixture. On the 3rd Floor are 3 more bedrooms, all of good side and a full bath with a custom vanity, light fixtures, blue subway tile and gold bath fixtures. LED lighting, ceiling fans, high efficiency water heater, plumbing mani-fold system, and Fujitsu mini-split cooling/heating systems are part of why this home is sustainable and energy efficient. The home is also completely SPRAY FOAM INSULATED and has a white-acrylic roof coating to keep you from losing energy. 726 Catharine Street is a must-see in person and is located within blocks of everything you need.
