A Living Legacy in the Heart of New Brighton

In the quiet, tree-lined streets of New Brighton stands a rare gem—one of only two Italianate-style homes in the entire borough. Built with pride in the late 1800s, this historic residence is more than just a house; it’s a living testament to time, craftsmanship and care. Perched on a solid hand-laid stone foundation, the home exudes permanence and strength. Its Italianate lines, bracketed cornices, and tall, narrow windows whisper of another era, a time when architectural beauty was born from both function and artistry. But step inside, and the story deepens.

The current owner—a steward of history and a master of restoration—has single-handedly gutted the home to its studs, revealing the bones of a bygone era and exposing the skilled and solid structure in every corner. He has painstakingly preserved many of the original elements for the next owner to replicate and restore them during the reconstruction. Fragments of plaster molding, solid walnut banisters, delicate spindles remain intact, hardboard siding and quarter-sawn oak mantles are a few of the gems awaiting your reimagination. Rebuilt staircases now stand where time once took its toll, each step a seamless blend of old and new. Every room offers a canvas, rich with architectural value and historic charm, for someone with a vision to finish what history began.

Situated on the main street in the vibrant town of New Brighton, just one block from the bustling business section, the interior has been prepped and is ready for you to restore its elegance. It offers soaring ceilings, original millwork (preserved and ready for restoration), and abundant natural light. Whether you envision a 3 or 4 bedroom layout, this flexible floor plan allows you to create the home that suits your needs. The heavy lifting has been done—now it's your turn to design and build your dream home or investment project. This is not a flip. It is a craftsman's tribute, a home brought forward with purpose and patience, ready for the next chapter. If you're seeking a project with meaning, a place where the past and future can coexist under one roof, this is your opportunity. They do not build them like this anymore and they certainly do not come around often.
