Tucked away on one of the Claremont’s most sought-after street, this mostly single-level 5+ bedroom home is drenched in natural light and brimming with personality—an inspired blend of early 20th-century charm and bold, modern design. Originally built in 1915 and thoughtfully reimagined in the 1990s by renowned local architect Bill Dutcher, the home showcases a unique architectural flair, with built-in furniture, playful peek-throughs, Dutch doors, and vibrant finishes throughout. Designed with accessibility in mind, it effortlessly combines comfort and creativity in every corner. The main level features two generously sized bedrooms with a shared bath, along with an updated primary suite offering a luxurious walk-in shower and stunning tilework. Multiple rooms spill out into lush, romantic gardens—complete with patios, seating nooks, and winding paths that make the outdoors feel like a private oasis. A detached office or studio provides a quiet, inspiring space for work or creativity. Located just moments from cozy cafés and top-tier dining, 59 Parkside is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle filled with character, elegance, and wonder. Come experience the magic.
