About 1312 Parrett Street
A corner-lot Victorian in the heart of the Haynie's Corner Arts District, this home stands as both a piece of history and a study in thoughtful renovation. Its gabled roofline, tall windows, and inviting front porch surrounded by lush landscaping recall the craftsmanship of its era, while inside, a recent redesign opens the plan for modern life. The central gesture of the renovation: the exposed brick chimney, positioned between living and dining areas, a tactile reminder of the home's past now serving as a contemporary focal point. The kitchen extends this sense of gathering and utility, anchored by a generous island, equally suited for meal prep, school mornings, or an evening of cocktails with friends - or yourself. Unique among Victorians in this neighborhood, the home offers the flexibility of a main-floor suite, with laundry discreetly positioned in the en-suite, guest-facing bath. Upstairs, a larger suite sits quietly at the rear of the home, while a large, third bedroom at the front of the home captures the western light, framing views of the surrounding streetscape and its ongoing revival. The backyard continues the balance of urban practicality and domestic ease: compact, sunlit, and low-maintenance, inviting gardening without burden, while leaving time to explore the neighborhood itself. Just beyond the gate lies one of the city's most walkable neighborhoods, where art, dining, and creative culture converge - a setting the local press has called "hip" for over a decade. The result is a home that honors its Victorian origins while embracing the rhythm of contemporary living, offering both sanctuary and connection in a neighborhood defined by its energy and reinvention. The only thing it's waiting for is you.
