Built by Gordon Cross in conjunction with the American Wood Council, this stately home was featured in Better Homes and Gardens in 1990,showcasing the solid wood trim designed by craftsmen in the building process.Set back within a cluster of white wood homes,porches, trees, and picket fences, the area beckons to the calm of yesteryear.Close walking distance to the bluff, the Isle of Hope Marina, and the Intracoastal Waterway, this small area of homes invites evening strolls and a sense of community within the historic Isle of Hope area. The area is truly a vision of the old South, often used for movie scenes, and one can't help but feel the ease of time with the oak trees and southern breezes. Home features new stove top in a convenient kitchen,including double ovens,butler's pantry, and prep sink. Remote ceiling levers in garage for ample storage. One wood burning fireplace and one gas fireplace. Upstairs space used as artist studio can be adapted for den, playroom.
