Imagine…living inside a Paul Hayden Kirk design where the windows still fall where he placed them in 1954, and the layout moves similarly to the way he drew it, but everything behind the walls has been rebuilt for how you live now. Morning light pours through the windows, now fitted with double-pane glass, onto refinished original hardwood floors upstairs. You wake up in a primary suite with heated bathroom floors and an expanded closet, then step into a kitchen that grew from Kirk's original footprint but kept cabinets below to leave the windows unobstructed, added an induction range with a hidden downdraft vent for a clean peninsula, new cabinetry, a butler's pantry with wine fridge, and toe kick lighting. It's 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths across 2,360 square feet. What other permitted work was added and done right? New electrical panel & wiring, new plumbing, a new sewer liner & water line from the street, a full earthquake retrofit, EV Car charger, & heat pumps in place of the old oil furnace. By midday you're a few doors down at the Wedgwood Pool or Dahl Playfield's ball fields and skate park. Evenings move onto the expanded deck, hosting friends for dinner overlooking the flat, grassy backyard. When things wind down, the finished lower level waits with a large rec room, a bonus room that could be a home gym/office/theater room, plus two more bedrooms, full bathroom & laundry room. Can you imagine living here, and can you be the next steward of this Paul Hayden Kirk gem?
