Some homes sit in historic neighborhoods - Others help define them. Originally designed by renowned architect William Haajar as the Mackenzie House, this residence represents a meaningful piece of College Heights’ architectural heritage. Haajar’s work helped shape the character of the neighborhood, and this home remains a distinctive example of that legacy. Set on a remarkable 0.70-acre lot - a rarity in College Heights - the property offers space, privacy, and mature landscaping that elevates it well beyond a typical in-town setting. Inside, over 3,200 square feet includes 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, with a thoughtfully integrated addition that enhances livability while respecting the home’s architectural roots. Expansive windows, natural light, and warm materials create a strong connection between interior and outdoor spaces. The kitchen and baths have been updated with clean, modern finishes, blending original character with everyday functionality. A two-car garage addition complements the home, along with a versatile outbuilding suitable for vehicle storage or workshop use, plus a garden shed. The permitted one-bedroom, one-bath apartment with private entrance adds exceptional flexibility—ideal for guests, extended living, or supplemental income. Architectural pedigree. Substantial lot. Enduring design. A rare opportunity to own a home that is not simply located in College Heights—but part of its story. View this listing at: http://donhelsel.com/mls=PACE2517382
