About this home
Single Family · Built 1933 · Historic
The Crown Jewel of Elm Heights! The historic castle on the corner was built in the 1930's by the famous Vonderschmitt family. Designed by Hiram Callendar who studied architecture in France, this spectacular French Country home is filled with unique architectural details. Notable features include a Vermont slate roof with copper gutters, built in corner china cabinets, exquisite original wood work and craftsmanship throughout. Wide plank HW floors with pegs, impressive thick 10 panel solid wood doors and even an elevator. Dramatic black walnut beams in the soaring ceiling, an impressive fire place and a Romeo & Juliet balcony create a feeling of awe in the LR. The sweeping staircase features a beautiful railing from France. Interior paint has been restored by a local artisan recently and the painting inside the dome is a masterpiece. This home has hosted movie stars, celebrities and was featured in Bloom magazine. Offered for sale twice in 80 years. See attached files for more info.
