The impeccably restored award-winning 1900 Coolidge-estate House and 2016 guest home are sited on a stunningly landscaped 1/3-acre corner lot in the desirable Skidmore Academy Historic District, just five flat blocks from Ashland’s downtown plaza, OSF theaters and Lithia Park. The re-imagined home design features a first-floor Master + elegance and functionality, preserving significant historic details while opening the floor plan for contemporary living and age-in-place accessibility.
“Nursery Street Home & Gardens” won the enviable Ashland Historic Society’s “Distinguished Architectural Preservation Award”. The entire residence was completely restored in 2012 with all systems, HVAC, plumbing, insulation, windows and irrigation replaced with the highest caliber materials. The opened main living space includes a cozy fireplace, a reading alcove, spacious living room, dining room, wet bar and gourmet kitchen with breakfast nook and views to Grizzly Peak. Unusual for an historic home, this residence features first-floor living including the Master Bed & Bath, office and guestrooms plus widened halls and doorways and a gorgeous kitchen that opens through French doors directly onto a no-step wraparound deck.
Sited on a sun-dappled corner lot, “Nursery Street Home & Gardens” is surrounded by fruit and nut trees, providing privacy while still affording mountain views. Choose sun or shade, among the three decks and the private balcony that make up the 1,040 SF of outdoor living space for large dinner parties or intimate gatherings. The decks are all built with beautiful maintenance-free composite Trex. This home has won the coveted “Pollinator Garden” designation awarded to chemical and pesticide free organic properties. The gardens feature abundant berries, fruits, herb and nuts, as well as a cutting flowers for every season.
The main residence features wood floors, master carpentry finishes, double doors into the Master suite and office, stainless appliances, and mountain views. The tranquil main Master has a double-door entry, walk-in closet, walk-in shower, double vanities and its own door to a private morning deck. Upstairs is a light and bright open-concept room with a half-bath and a generous balcony overlooking the neighborhood and Mt. Ashland, perfect for a studio, playroom, second office or a third guest suite.
The newly built single-story 720-SF guest home, tucked behind the main residence, is entirely private with its own entrance, deck and attached garage. It is a legal and licensed rental accommodation rated 5-stars on both VRBO and AirBnB. (See VRBO.com/865727 for more information).
