Property Description
1025 Pinehurst Place, known as The Mayes Fridge Home, is a one-of-a-kind Neoclassical style residence, featuring a newly installed spanish clay tile roof, and was designed by acclaimed architect Emmett Hull, husband of Mississippi artist Marie Hull, in 1910. Placed atop a hill on over a half an acre, this home is truly "Iconic Belhaven". The large wood windows have been beautifully preserved and still retain the highly sought after "wavy glass", indicative of glass fabricated at the turn of the 20th century. Imagine enjoying your coffee in your rocking chair on this unmatched front porch watching kids walk to school and listening to birds sing, or even using it to host a game of cards, mahjong, or an entire dinner party. Once you enter, you will find yourself in a grand living space with twelve-foot ceilings, beautiful natural light, built in bookshelves, and the first of five fireplaces. All the interior of the home has been newly painted. The dining room features custom glass sconces recently refurbished and high-end luxury wallpaper. To the left of the dining room, you will find a sunroom pulled straight out of a Nancy Myers film. Filled with light and surrounded by windows, this room also has its own fireplace and French doors that lead to the landscaped, private brick courtyard and firepit- it does not get better than this. Walking through the dining room, you will find yourself in a customized kitchen full of thoughtful storage and newly painted cabinetry. Don't forget to look at the beautifully designed laundry closet, perfectly placed by the backdoor! In the hallway, you will notice the lovely full guest bathroom, beautiful wood floors, and generous sized bedrooms. The primary bathroom has just been completely renovated. The bedrooms include their own custom built ins, fireplaces, and original windows. Out the back door you'll find the perfect sized backyard, you'll be pleasantly surprised when you see what comes up in your garden beds come early spring. The two-car garage and storage building was completely rebuilt less than 10 years ago and offers the perfect space for cars, sport and lawn equipment and any other storage needs. The paved driveway and parking pad offers additional off street parking spots as well. Though built in 1910, this home boasts a new air conditioning unit, tankless water heater, newly remodeled laundry closet, primary bathroom, hallway lighting and new investment in the home's foundation and brick skirting.
