About this home

Behind its classic brick facade, this 1926 Meridian Kessler home pairs historic gravitas with a professionally designed, down-to-the-studs remodel. An arched portico, stately columns, mature trees, and a beautiful slate roof create a memorable arrival, while five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms provide substantial room for everyday life and entertaining. Custom millwork and rich hardwoods set the tone in a showstopping foyer, continuing into living spaces with paneled walls, tall windows, and classic fireplace surrounds. The dining room layers wainscoting and statement wallpaper beneath a sculptural chandelier. Every detail feels considered, from custom built-ins to the polished powder bath. Historic character and modern expression share the same roof without competing for attention. The remodeled kitchen takes center stage with custom blue cabinetry, expansive countertops, a patterned tile backsplash, statement range hood, brass accents, and an oversized waterfall island with seating. It opens to a sunlit living area with wide-plank hardwoods and oversized sliding glass doors to the backyard. A sleek wet bar adds another inviting destination for hosting, while a vaulted-ceiling bedroom and refined bathrooms bring comfort elsewhere in the home. Below, the basement expands the home's flexibility; a two-car garage and long driveway handle parking with ease. Experience the craftsmanship, character, and vivid design of this Meridian Kessler classic-schedule your private showing today.
