Every once in a while, a phenomenal property comes on the market and 4949 N Kostner is just that kind of a house. Built in 1930, this one-of-a-kind Tudor sits on a lovely tree shaded block in North Mayfair. The classic high-pitched roof, the brick, stone, stucco and timber facade, gorgeous decorative windows, arched doorway and extra wide lot create a storybook Cotswold fantasy in this Northside neighborhood of bungalows. Lovingly and proudly owned by meticulous sellers, this house has been transformed to perfection. Eleven rooms, 5 bedrooms, 2.1 baths, recreation room, an office and four-season porch allow comfortable living for any size family. Classically elegant and spacious. Welcoming entry with guest closet. Beautiful foyer. Large living room. Separate formal dining room. New kitchen with incredible storage, stainless steel electric appliances, quartz and custom tile backsplash, a custom Amish made breakfast island-it is a chef's dream. A private office on this first-floor level with floor to ceiling bookcases and a dreamy eat in porch with a pantry that looks out over the spectacular garden. Refurbished first floor powder room. Three large bedrooms up, each with a walk-in closet. A new bath total gut rehabbed in 2025. Basement gutted and refinished with two large bedrooms, a recreation room with wet bar, private laundry and loads of storage. Windows, tuckpointing, insulation, high end mechanicals, electric, plumbing have all been attended to. The yard is a dream with a beautiful patio. The 2.5 car garage has a covered lanai on the north side and plenty of storage. Words are insufficient to describe the care, quality, condition and livability of 4949 N Kostner. You just have to see it.
