About this home

Recently featured on HGTV’s House Hunters, this truly special home at 1591 Summit offers historic charm, thoughtful improvements, and room to make it your own. Set on a rare nearly ½-acre flat lot, the expansive green space includes a newly added patio and deck—perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or play. A unique dual-entrance driveway off Summit Avenue leads to a spacious attached two-car garage. The top floor offers 750 square feet of versatile living space with its own bathroom, sitting area, and large bedroom—ideal for guests, movie nights, a home gym, studio, or cartwheel competitions. The dining room fireplace sets the stage for leisurely dinners that naturally flow into the gorgeous living room, where original woodwork meets abundant natural light. 4 bedrooms are conveniently located on the same level and feature mini-split systems, along with two bathrooms and nearby laundry. The lower level is where the fun happens—a cool gathering space highlighted by beautifully restored original stone walls, a 1/4 bathroom, wine cellar, and plenty of room to relax or entertain. Recent improvements include a fully remodeled kitchen, a completely gutted and renovated upstairs bathroom, and thoughtful updates throughout the home. With incredible walkability in one of the most iconic locations in the city, this home is truly a gem. Included are prior seller disclosures, multiple architectural plans—including the original 1904 drawings—and a clean structural report completed by a licensed engineer when the current owners purchased the home. Solid, beautiful, and ready for its next stewards.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
