1115 Woodlawn Avenue

DESCRIPTION

Certainly a marvel to the passerby, the historic Woodlawn House is Ann Arbor's best example of the Italianate Villa. With an antiquity dating back to the 1860's, the estate was built by Christian Eberbach who, among other titles, was a founder of the Republican Party. Amazingly, over 150 years of rich charm and history remain intact, including detailed original trims, hardware, solid core doors, glass and floors. The updates for today's modern living flawlessly blend with its original heritage, including the exceptional kitchen with Wolff and Subzero stainless appliances, Motawi tile backsplash, and large center island with prep sink. Once a storeroom for grains, fruits, and smoking hams, the vaulted-brick bonus room in the lower level is perfect recreation/game room or speakeasy! The attached carriage house wing provides a separate apartment, which could be opened to the house or serve as auxiliary housing for long-term guests. 3 car garage was perfectly designed to match the house!
