Meticulously renovated over the course of a decade, this former ice cream shop is truly one of a kind. Located in the heart of Point Breeze, this corner building has been appointed with crisp trim work in black and tan with vibrant accents of Moroccan red. Vintage enameled steel light fixtures brighten up the entire corner at night while highlighting the stained glass transom letting everyone know that they have arrived at 1715 Reed Street. Once inside, youll be greeted by a bright and expansive entertaining and work space. 2 mahogany picture windows and 6 pendant lights hung from the painted white tin ceiling tiles highlight the gleaming white oak floors and midnight blue trim as well as play beautifully off the painted exposed brick wall. Just off the main room is a powder room and beyond that lies a butlers pantry pass through with access to the full height basement and the kitchen. The eat-in kitchen is designed for maximum functionality with the inlaid tray ceiling, tilework, and exposed brick wall as focal points. The gas stove has never been used and was just installed last week. The farmhouse sink with filtered water and the maple butcher block counter tops round out the space. Just off the kitchen youll find the back door to the sidewalk and the interior access to the one car garage where the washer and dryer have been relocated. Around the corner and up the stairs youll enter the private living quarters that can be utilized in a multitude of ways. The staircase features a glass tiled art nook on your way up. To the right is a full 3 piece bathroom with classic white subway tile, bathtub, and vintage 2-piece toilet paired with a modern vanity and storage. Built-in teak shelving allows for decorative storage throughout the space. In addition youll notice a restored original wooden door with porthole window that leads to a rooftop seating area that allows for an outdoor space to relax with a drink. To the left of the stairs is a large seating area awash with natural light and with plenty of room to stretch out and read a book or pull out the custom designed Murphy bed if your guests are staying in town for the weekend. With the Murphy bed down, youll notice the thoughtfully built in space to hang art and the lovely damask wallpaper that provides a pop of color against the richness of the wood tones and the sage green walls. Beyond the glass French doors is the primary bedroom with tray ceilings, a bay window, and decorative fireplace with brick masonry. The large closet lends additional storage. Throughout the home youll find recessed lighting, ceiling fans for air circulation, hardwood and custom tile flooring, Anderson replacement windows, and spectacular attention to detail. Everything from the roof, the boiler, the plumbing, the electric wiring, to the sewer line has been replaced during the current owners stewardship. With a Walk Score of 90, this location is a walkers paradise surrounded by coffee shops, restaurants and other locally owned businesses. Also in close proximity to public transportation (both bus and train), its just minutes to all of the major thoroughfares. This house is the total package and completely unique. Youll never see another like it again.
