Listing Description

A Winchester jewel (Click on the Virtual Tour section to see the video walk through!) located within blocks of historic downtown Winchester, only 15 miles from Hamburg Pavilion in Lexington. Built in 1940 this 2132 sq ft stone house is curious blend of modern and revival architecture. The arched doorway on the facade speaks ''Tudor Revival'' but the restrained facade and the lines of the roof all speak to the influence of modern architecture. Most of all the dramatic use of geode stones on the facade gave the home it's nickname ''The Little Castle'' and it does feel like it came right out of a fairy tale - house made of magical geode stones. The home has been updated to modern standards, without changing the breathtaking interior features: seven arches viewed from the entryway including windows, two doorways, and a twelve foot barrel vaulted ceiling in the living room, and a fireplace made entirely of geodes, textured stucco walls throughout, hardwood floors, solid unpainted wooden doors. This magical little castle in the heart of Winchester is a great buy and a precious find. Open house Sunday July 17th, 2 -4.
