Welcome to this anything-but-ordinary 1923 Laurelhurst home with more personality than just about any Craftsman Bungalow we have met. There is nothing cookie-cutter about it. It is warm, soulful and wonderfully original, with 1920s character and playful geometric details. The main level has beautiful refinished wood floors, solid wood doors with crystal knobs, distinctive millwork and the kind of details you just do not find in newer homes. Large living and dining rooms sit at the front, while the kitchen looks directly into the garden and opens to a large deck out back. Two bedrooms and a full bath round out the main floor. Upstairs is one of the best surprises: An entire second floor private primary suite, incredibly quiet and surrounded by greenery. The ceiling planes fold and change direction overhead, giving the room shape and character, while large south-facing windows look out over the garden. Two walk-in closets and a beautifully updated ensuite bathroom complete the space. The lower level, with its tall ceilings, keeps going with an office, full bathroom, flexible TV or ping-pong room, laundry, tons of storage and direct access to the tuck-under garage. And then there is the backyard. This is not your standard patch of lawn and a fence. The south-facing garden is lush, private and wonderfully established, with mature trees and tropical plantings, a palm tree, big deck, vine-covered pergola, circular stone patio, saltwater hot tub and meandering pathways. At the back of the garden, the colorful cabana creates one more unexpected space for reading, working, hanging out or hiding from everyone in the house. All of this sits in the heart of Laurelhurst, surrounded by tree-lined streets and close to Laurelhurst Park, Hollywood, NE 28th restaurants, grocery stores and MAX. Walk Score 87. Bike Score 93. Laurelhurst K-8 and Grant High School. A house with history, personality and a whole lot of soul. Nothing cookie-cutter about it. And that is exactly the point.
