This Historic 1903 Georgian Revival was a wedding gift from the Ballentine Beer Baron to his daughter. The Key home has had only 4 owners. The current owner preserved & enhanced it using skilled tradesmen w/lineages tracing back to its original builders. A corner lot, this grand residence boasts 11RMS, 6BRS, 3FBS, & 2HBS. The striking stucco exterior features 2 chimneys, 3 gambrel-roofed pedimented dormers, and 2 side porches with balustrades, all beneath the original slate roof. It exudes warmth and elegance w/rich cherry wood trim, French doors and 7 exquisite hand-blown glass pendant chandeliers, attributed to Tiffany. The third floor houses a remarkable built-in billiards table, crafted in 1903 by the Brunswick Company. The 2015 kitchen renovation thoughtfully complements the original character, w/subway tile, Wolf range, and meticulously restored butlers pantry with brass hardware. Modern updates include lead line replacement to the street, plumbing and electrical upgrades, and a refurbished chimney with a gas insert. Wine enthusiasts will enjoy a temperature-controlled 200-bottle wine cellar. The large landscaped yard includes raised garden beds, irrigation lines, a built-in gas grill expertly rebuilt in 2024. Throughout the home, the original windows remain intact offering a glimpse into its timeless elegance. A perfect blend of history, craftsmanship, and modern refinement, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a Forest Hill landmark
