Located in the heart of hip and historic Saint Elmo is this rare and thoughtfully reimagined home where timeless charm meets modern design. The original circa 1930s bungalow has been seamlessly expanded with a striking contemporary addition, creating a distinctive ''then-and-now'' aesthetic that blends character with clean, modern lines. Inside, the main living and dining areas are defined by soaring vaulted ceilings and an abundance of windows that offer the space ample natural light. Custom blinds and window treatments have been installed throughout. A gas fireplace anchors the great room, complemented by a cozy reading nook. The kitchen is both functional and refined, featuring a large island with room for seating, a custom plaster range hood, new tile backsplash, and a convenient pantry for additional storage. Stylized concrete floors through the main living area lend a modern edge, beautifully contrasting the home's preserved architectural details. The main-level primary ensuite offers comfort and privacy, while the additional bedroom on the main floor is generously sized and rich in character, showcasing original brick and historic mantels from former fireplaces. In the lofted upstairs are 2 additional bedrooms with a shared bathroom - and offers flexibility to the next owner for additional bedrooms, home office, hobby room or at home gym. Thoughtful design continues in the powder room, where moody tones, a new vanity, and custom tile work create a bold and memorable space. A spacious laundry room on the main level adds everyday convenience. The crawlspace is encapsulated offering peace of mind. The front foyer welcomes you with historic stained glass, setting the tone for the home's unique blend of old and new. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with both a covered front porch and a side porch offering ideal spaces to relax and enjoy the neighborhood.
