Home Details for 1721 N Fern Court

Tucked along a quiet Old Town street, where the church bells of nearby St. Michael's mark the rhythm of the day, the story of 1721 Fern Court unfolds. Originally built as a horse stable in the early 1900s, the two-story property was converted into a Single-Family Home in 1987 before its exquisite renovation in the early 2000s into the stunning three-bedroom residence it is today. Sitting on a rare fifty-foot-wide lot with an expansive private garden, the home's history is felt from the moment you pass through the wrought iron gates and brick courtyard into 3,100 square feet of refinement. Soaring 17-foot vaulted ceilings rise above wooden beams and rich exposed brick, with sunlight pouring in from skylights and windows, casting soft shadows throughout the day. With characteristic elegance, the De Giulio kitchen anchors the main living space with custom SieMatic cabinetry, substantial Calacatta Gold marble and a striking La Cornue range, while a custom, built-in banquette invites slow mornings over coffee and long dinners with friends. Just beyond, a wood-burning fireplace glows quietly in the living room, the view stretching out to the private garden where the city suddenly falls away. A setting reminiscent of a quaint European village. Occupying its own wing, the gracious primary suite offers serenity and privacy with vaulted ceilings, generous closets, a wood-burning fireplace with gas starter and French doors overlooking the garden and a glimpse of St. Michael's steeple. The ensuite bathroom blends the rustic and refined with natural stone heated floors, a marble tub, separate shower, wood-clad ceiling and skylight and designer finishes. Within the home's private grounds, a garden designed by Hoerr Schaudt is layered in stone and greenery, with a firepit and built-in grill nestled within the landscape. Expansive in scale, yet intimate in the moments it creates. On the first level, two additional bedrooms and bathroom, a bonus room, second powder room and den with built-in bookshelves and French doors quietly frame the courtyard, which accesses the two-car garage. An exceptional home within the historical fabric of Old Town.
