920 Kingston Ave

Rarely does a home of this caliber in untarnished condition grace the market. Held by the same family since its construction in 1912, this extraordinary estate stands as a pristine time capsule of Prairie School/Craftsman architecture. Set on a wide, tree-lined street known for its vibrant sense of community, the home commands attention with its stately curb appeal and grand architectural lines. Step inside to find a world of preserved elegance. The scale is immediately breathtaking, defined by soaring ceilings and grand proportions that are increasingly hard to find. The interior is a showcase of original millwork, with rich wood details and built-ins, unchanged for over a century. Every room feels generous, offering a sense of space and light that invites both quiet relaxation and large-scale entertaining. The upper level features four expansive bedrooms, including two that boast adjoined sitting rooms. A massive attic above provides ample storage space. The lower level transitions seamlessly to the outdoors via a large rumpus room that opens directly to the grounds. The lot itself is a rare find—wide, deep, and private. At the rear, a detached carriage house includes an attached bonus space, offering incredible potential for storage, a workshop, or possibly further development. Located just moments from the vibrant shops and dining of Piedmont Avenue and the heart of Piedmont, this home offers easy access to the very best of the city, including esteemed K-12 schools and responsive city services. This is a true "diamond in the rough"—a magnificent, soulful residence ready for its next chapter. Bring your vision to this historic masterpiece and polish it into the ultimate legacy estate.
