Welcome to “The Modern Gatsby,” a masterfully restored 1927 architectural treasure approaching its centennial. Built by hand in an era of uncompromising craftsmanship, 1022 showcases natural stone, hardwood timbers, soaring plaster ceilings, arched solid wood doors, original iron railings, and hand forged hardware. These are details that simply cannot be recreated today. Its legendary Prohibition era speakeasy features a private entrance, concealed bar, rounded fretwork ceiling, backlit stained glass, decorative crests, and an original “Gentlemen” sign. It is as unforgettable for entertaining today as it must have been in 1927. Six years of painstaking restoration followed one uncompromising rule: modernize everything that should be modern while preserving everything that can never be replaced. No detail was considered too small, and no decision was made casually. The original room based architecture was honored rather than erased, with historic doors, millwork, iron railings, and architectural elements carefully preserved and woven into the home’s renewed design. Even the original study was thoughtfully transformed into the primary suite closet, allowing an important historic space to begin an elegant new chapter. The kitchen was completely transformed into a truly extraordinary gathering space with Starmark cabinetry, Thermador appliances, and Visual Comfort lighting. The luxurious primary suite was extensively reimagined with beautiful marble finishes, abundant custom storage, a seated vanity, and its own fireplace. In the dining room, a spectacular Schonbek chandelier catches the setting sun and casts hundreds of tiny rainbows across the room during golden hour. The renovations continue seamlessly outdoors. A dramatic bar room bridges the interior and exterior through windows that open like double doors, creating an effortless connection to expansive stone terraces, an outdoor kitchen, and a wood burning fireplace. New patios and retaining walls enhance the grounds, while a mature tree canopy and natural breeze create a remarkably comfortable outdoor retreat. The sizeable, partially fenced property offers an exceptional setting for memorable gatherings, quiet mornings, and future possibilities. The practical renovations are every bit as impressive as the visible transformation. Major improvements include a younger slate roof, four newer zoned HVAC systems, a newer boiler, two newer water heaters, extensively updated electrical service and plumbing, a new drainage system and sump pumps, extensive tuckpointing, select new windows and doors, and a freshly patched and sealed driveway. Together, these improvements represent years of careful planning, significant investment, and responsible stewardship. Historic grandeur. Modern comfort. Nearly a century of stories. Its finest chapter may be next.
