Description
Perched at the top of the Historic Kessler Steps on Canterbury Court's premier double lot, sits a 1929 Tudor, lovingly known in the neighborhood as Lady Canterbury. Overlooking a waterfall, the curved veranda's red sandstone is rumored to be from the storied Baker Hotel, site of the famed Peacock Terrace Ballroom and Dallas Petroleum Club's Mural Room. The Rookwood fireplace, leaded diamond glass windows, and original brass sconces with family crest are all original. In the renovated kitchen, the front-facing turret holds a charming round banquette with seating for 8. A spacious 2 car garage was added in the 80's, but the original 2 car tandem remains in the basement, reimagined as a hobby garage, office, and speak-easy wine cellar. In addition to the gorgeous living room with vaulted ceilings and custom built-ins, the first floor hosts an oversized dining room, renovated kitchen and laundry, light and bright office, 2 bedrooms leading out to the pool and 2 new baths. The second story reveals an oversized bedroom, new bath, and plans for an expanded fourth bedroom. There's plenty of room to ramble. New owners will be only the fifth family in a hundred years to occupy this historic home.
