Overview
Description
A Turn-of-the-Century Home Where History and Modern Opulence Meet. Experience a home more than a century in the making. Built between 1897 and 1900, this distinctive Downtown Denison residence is a masterclass in Victorian elegance with architectural artistry at every turn while offering beautifully updated spaces for modern living. A wrap-around covered porch, gable detailing and tall windows create exceptional historic curb appeal. Step inside to foyer with original hardwood floors and lofty ceilings. Historic purists will appreciate the preserved fretwork in the cased opening leading to the original parlor. The massive pocket doors are a rare, functional work of art in this space defined by a historic fireplace. Thoughtful updates complement rather than erase the history in this home. The dramatic kitchen features tiled accent wall, open shelving, elegant brass accents and warm wood center island with stone top. Hidden behind the glass door is a butler's pantry that pairs moody cabinetry with a classic London apron sink. Equal parts, historic romance and modern prep luxury! The main floor bath honors the late-Victorian era with geometric patterned marble tile, classic brass fixtures and a graceful pedestal sink. The upstairs bath is modern luxury wrapped in historic charm with a dramatic freestanding soaking tub, classic subway tile and crisp plank wall covering. The lighting throughout the home showcases a dialogue between eras with contemporary silhouettes and ornate crystal chandeliers. Carefully preserved architectural details including some original panel doors, and era-authentic layered and pooling draperies, fill this home with rich provenance. Located just one block from historic and vibrant Downtown Denison, 605 W Chestnut isn't a reproduction of a historic home—it's the real thing. For the buyer seeking authentic architecture with modern comfort, this is an uncommon opportunity to become the next steward of a remarkable piece of Denison history.
