More than a home, this one's a generational treasure! One of Stevens Point's most admired historic residences, this extraordinary 1909 Tudor half-timbered fieldstone Bugaloid hybrid is a breathtaking blend of architectural artistry, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance. Lovingly preserved and impeccably maintained by the current owner for the past 36 years, this remarkable home is prominently featured in the book Houses That Grew and stands as a treasured piece of local history within Stevens Point's Historic District. Constructed as one of the city's earliest and most distinctive boulder stone residences, the home immediately earned recognition for its massive granite lower exterior, striking Tudor-inspired half timbering, decorative gables, leaded and stained-glass windows, and rich Elizabethan influence. Every inch of this home radiates warmth, sophistication, and character rarely found today. From the moment you arrive, the breathtaking curb appeal captivates. A grand stone front porch welcomes guests into a charming air-lock entry showcasing the original tile floor and embossed tin ceiling. Inside, a dramatic two-story staircase with an intricately hand-carved hardwood railing creates an unforgettable first impression. The home offers 2,456 finished square feet filled with stunning original craftsmanship, including 9-foot ceilings, beautifully restored diagonal-pattern maple floors, oversized 12-inch base moldings, vintage doors and trim, pocket doors, custom sewn linen sheers, and remarkable architectural detail throughout. The formal dining room is pure elegance, anchored by an exquisite chandelier and original double pocket doors. The expansive living room is equally impressive with its oversized bay window, custom motorized shade, built-in bookcases, and gorgeous wood-burning fireplace featuring a striking sunburst-pattern brick surround. The completely remodeled kitchen, designed by Welling and Jon Marty in 2023, perfectly balances historic integrity with modern luxury. Features include custom white cabinetry with rain-glass accents, Cambria quartz countertops, porcelain apron-front farmhouse sink, restored original hardwood flooring, stainless Frigidaire Gallery appliances, designer lighting, tiled backsplash, corner banquet seating, and a custom butcher-block table included with the home. Upstairs, you'll discover four spacious bedrooms filled with abundant natural light, gleaming hardwood floors, walk-in closets, and captivating architectural lines. The beautifully renovated upper bath preserves the home's historic soul with marble flooring, cast-iron tub and shower, pedestal sink, inset medicine cabinets, and built-in storage. Additional highlights include a second “butler's” staircase, unfinished walk-up attic with future expansion potential, modestly finished lower level with game room, workshop, and laundry area, fully fenced backyard with a 8-foot privacy fence, beautifully landscaped grounds, maintenance-free composite deck, and detached two-car garage. Steeped in local history and connected to several influential Stevens Point families, this is far more than a home; it is a rare architectural legacy offering an irreplaceable opportunity to own one of the community's truly iconic residences.
