πΉ JUST LISTED | ROSE GARDEN πΉ
Designed in 1926 by renowned architect Louis Christian Mullgardt, the Charles D. Stevens Estate is one of the Rose Gardenβs most distinctive and romantic residences. Believed to be Mullgardtβs final residential commission, 838 Morse Street is a deeply original work of old-growth redwood, pine-clad interiors, twelve-foot ceilings, French doors, geometry, light and shadow.
Set on a rare nearly half-acre parcel, the house possesses an estate-like scale seldom found in the neighborhood. Yet its character reveals itself as much in the smallest details as in the grandest spaces: skeleton keys, original service bells, a mechanical call box, a hidden spiral staircase, repeating diamond motifs, and a nearly 40-by-20-foot great living and dining room designed for gathering, entertaining and everyday life.
For those seeking something truly special, deeply original, dripping in history, and alive with architectural imagination, 838 Morse Street is one of those rare homes that seems to hold all of it at once. Not frozen in the past. Not waiting to become something else.
Waiting... for its next great love affair.
