Designed by renowned architect, Rupert W Koch in 1916 (Hoover Mansion in Ann Arbor, Graystone Ballroom in Detroit) & built for Earl V Moore (long time Director of UM Music School & co-composer of the ''Varsity'' fight song), this charming Tudor gem, perfectly situated on a quiet street amongst majestic pines & with beautiful lofted views, is just mins to The Arb, U of M, hospitals & all things Downtown in vibrant Ann Arbor. So much of the original charm of the home has been retained from its handsome brick exterior to its multitude of built-in curio cabinets & storage nooks, stained-glass, bookcases, a charming covered side entry w/brick archway. Yet around the charm is beautiful functionality: a spacious kitchen w/generous soapstone counter space, prep sink, wine cooler, large center island w/seating area - & natural stone heated floors! You will love & appreciate the large mudroom area w/ storage cubby holes & hanging pegs galore. The large formal DR steps down gracefully into the gorgeous LR w/cozy converted gas fireplace, all w/multiple large (Pella) windows at every turn, allowing the light & beautiful views to flood in. The generously proportioned screened-in porch is the perfect place to relax or entertain; the rear stone patio is private & serene. Upstairs are 5 BRs including the adorable little one that was originally part of the maid's quarters. Both upper full bathrooms have been tastefully updated w/modern & sleek finishes. Possibilities galore await in the enormous attic space that could be permanently accessed for future add'l fin living space. The LL features a FR w/converted gas fireplace, a walk-out to the secluded LL patio, a climate-controlled wine cellar & large laundry room area. The detached garage has an extra storage area to the rear as well as a pull-down ladder to impressive storage (future finished?) area w/dormer windows above. It's impossible to include all the charming features of the home.
