History, architecture and an extraordinary setting converge in this one-of-a-kind Ottawa Hills residence. Built by Cavalier in 1977, the stately brick Colonial was inspired by the George Wythe House in Williamsburg, VA—home of Declaration of Independence signer George Wythe. With plans unavailable at the time, the architect traveled to Williamsburg and personally measured the original home to authentically recreate its symmetry and character. Hardwood floors, handsome millwork, built-ins, fireplaces and beautifully proportioned rooms reflect its Colonial inspiration, complemented by the conveniences of modern living. A sweeping Southern-style screened porch, added in 1980, extends across the rear and overlooks the lush, private grounds. The home has a special place in Ottawa Hills history, having hosted elementary students during their Williamsburg studies and appeared on the community House Walk. An exceptional opportunity to own a home with a story as distinctive as its architecture. Beautifully situated on over 1.08+ acres in the Estate Section of Ottawa Hills, surrounded by some of the finest real estate in our region. Soaring 12' ceilings set the tone upon entry throughout the main level. Wide plank oak hardwood floors, custom millwork crown molding and trim, and tremendous custom-built ins throughout the home enhance its function and design. Elegant formal living and dining rooms, expansive family room on the main level w/wet bar, fireplace and access to over 500' screened in-porch built in 1998. Island kitchen w/gas cooktop, double oven, massive pantry, eat in area, and custom wood cabinets. Two half bathrooms on the main level.
