Residential architect Geoffrey Warner was featured in Garage Reinvented by converting and expanding a tiny Victorian home into a stlish, innovative design featuring a spacious oversized master bedroom and an attached garage. This was all accomplished by adjoining the original "Icehouse of Lake Calhoun" with the newer addition and literally bridged by a mahogany bridge that pour natural light into the family room from the upper level skylights. The sellers who are moving north will miss the obvious conveniences of living across the street from Lake Calhoun as well as the incredible ECCO Neighborhood. They will miss their private balcony cappuccinos overlooking the set back yard and seasonal views of Lake Calhoun. The sellers will deeply miss the uptown conveniences, events, ambiance and energy and hope to have a great couple enjoy the numerous upgrades and efficiencies of this home from: A New Roof, skylights, interior and exterior paint, new patios in front and back, new fence, new built in cabinets in the re-designed den, a new bonus room off the 2nd bedroom, upgraded mechanicals and appliances and award winning gardens that literally stops traffic.
