"Great homes that move the spirit have always been rare. In every case they are unique, poetic products of the heart." The great Arthur Erickson offered that many years ago, but it's even more true today in our mass, copy cat culture. 1600 Pope is not just a home, but a treasure that radiates brighter with every passing day. The expansive grounds and crisp landscaping combined with the commanding presence of the Tudor Revival style at the end of this storied block play a trick on your senses and make you believe you're visiting a 17th Century, Lincolnshire estate. The details are exquisite: from the gauged brick, round-arch over the main entrance, to the grand manor roof, to the use of multi-hued bricks that impart a picturesque irregularity enhancing the home's historic charm. But the real magic occurs when the interior defies your instinct that the home will be dark and choppy. Instead, the flawless and dazzling wood floors warmly usher you through its graceful and surprisingly well integrated floor plan. Well proportioned Living and Dining Rooms offer the scale that can handle any sized gatherings. The kitchen artfully combines delicate refinement with sleek modern appointment, all blending together with the practical functionality the modern buyer demands. Another awesome living space, the soothing Den fluently communicates with the kitchen, yet still allows the chef to focus if they so desire. First and Second Floor primary bedrooms grant extraordinary versatility to the floor plan, and the 3rd bedroom boasts a huge closet that can house most of your out of season clothes. Downstairs, the basement reveals yet another dimension of soul here with its rugged chic decor, highlighted by exposed framing and robustly handsome, exposed brick! Between this space and the abounding flex space of the rest of the basement, only your imagination will limit this level's usages! And punctuating all this is THE most enchanting porch I've ever experienced! This home is more art than real estate.
