Design Concept

Now You Have Arrived Home...

The design of this home honors the original ideas commissioned by Ezra Holton.  A full renovation and refurbishment of this home over six years inspires impressive beauty combined with calm elegance and dignity.

The classic architectural style of 1870 and it's grandiose layout is accentuated with a tranquil color scheme throughout the entire home that bridges the past with the sought after comfort and quietude of today.  It illuminates an imaginative confluence of creative intentions that honor the integrity in the principle rooms that delineate noble accents of crown moldings and ceiling ornaments that emboss twelve foot high ceilings on both the main and second floor.  The first and second floor are both graced with gas fireplaces, with the principle bay window room having a stunning built in ornate marble mantlepiece.   

A modern hydraulic system was utilized to stabilize this home with an iron foundation installed in a fully functional multipurpose dry basement.  Complete with a newly installed furnace & built-in humidifier, A/C unit, Tankless hot water tank, sewage piping, sump pump, washer & dryer, windows, insulation, firewall protectant, warehouse floor enamel paint, shelving and drywall. Currently the basement is used as an office & library space, food and storage area, as well as a laundry and chess/games room.  A third bathroom is possible to install in the basement area.  Due to a high level of secured structural stability, this home will remain in its noble and magnificent state for centuries to come.

New modern UV Ray protection windows were recently installed throughout the entire house on all four floors.  New German quality scratch resistant timeless oak flooring has also been installed; new appliances (3 of which have never been used), insulation and its requisite insurance fire wall protection; and new main and storm doors make up only a portion of what this home renovation has undergone.  The fourth floor is an unexpected, surprising, and cozy dwelling with two main rooms currently used as a reading parlor and an entertainment room.  This floor was completely gutted and transformed into a traditional space featuring lovely warm wood floors and period Victorian accent railings, reinvented to perfection.  These rooms have the possibility to be used as guestrooms as well.  This floor has a separate electrical panel.   

The interior of the home is graced by an extensive, stately front lawn setting the house deep and away from the street.  Graceful gardens complete with classical figure statues complete the setting of this elaborate home.  A brand new lifetime warranty six foot high Quartz Nuvo iron black ornamental fence has been installed, complete with two gates, framing this glorious home.  Varieties of Magnolia and Cherry trees flourish among rhododendrons and lilac trees throughout the entire green area surrounding the house.  Perennial flowers amidst Boston Ivy and Wisteria Vines grow annually, contributing to an inspiring ambiance deserving of souls seeking repose and comfort in a vigorously changing world.   

The Holton Home is not just a rich piece of noble tradition which has been modernized with sleek, clean lines creating a chic urban habitat.  It is a place to create lasting memories, inviting a perpetual and enriching life experience daily.  This was the owners objective and goal in restoring this home to a state of masterpiece status.  A work of art that has been created into a living space that is aesthetically enhanced and lifegiving.  Imagine...sitting on the newly renovated porches, gazing into the moon and stars at night with friends, reflecting on the truly important aspects of living a life well examined.  Or greet the early morning alone, with birds singing in the maple and cedar trees, and witness the changing seasons in the gentle quietude and luxurious comfort of 'home'.
