Welcome to 10 S Capitol Parkway! Called Dexter’s Haven, the home is situated on a treelined boulevard in Historic Capitol Heights. As you approach the home you are immediately greeted by a large, gracious porch. Upon entering this amazing home you’ll find gorgeous custom woodwork that includes ornate mantles, built-ins and box beam ceilings as it was once a showcase for Gorrie Lumber. Both the living and dining rooms have original, working pocket doors. There are original wood floors throughout except in the primary bath. When that area was updated heated tile floors were installed as well as a heated towel rack. The primary bedroom was originally the kitchen, the built-ins found there were in what was the butler’s pantry at that time. The hall bath has the original tub and sink, the sink does have new hardware. There are cedar closets in the primary and back bedrooms as well as in the hall. The spacious kitchen is truly a chef’s kitchen with a 36 inch gas range with oven, a separate convection+ oven and a marble baking counter with granite everywhere else. It also has the original farmhouse sink, seating at the island and a banquette with extra storage. Out back you will find a tranquil oasis and refuge with extensive plantings, patio area that has bricks salvaged from a downtown Montgomery building and two fountains, one with granite salvaged from curb stones, also from downtown, and an antique fire hose nozzle. The original garage was converted to a workshop and don’t miss the cozy garden room that is wired and includes wood looking tile floor that is heat rated to accommodate a wood stove, a vent for the stove, antique salvaged oak paneling, cedar beams and salvaged leaded glass windows. It also has space for tool storage along the outside back.
