"Located on a picture perfect street in the Meadows, this stunning home was built with high end finishes in 2008. Features include 11 ft. coffered ceilings and 8 ft. glass doors that open to a private heated pool and spa plus and outdoor shower. The spacious kitchen has custom cabinets, s/s appliances and a home office. Upstairs are two bedrooms including a luxurious master suite with a private balcony and gorgeous views. This home is walking distance to Garrison Bight marina for boaters and water sports. This home is part of an 8 unit association but feels like a single family home and is being offered fully furnished. There are plenty of extras including a covered gated carport, new pool heater, full house generator, wind rated construction, low maintenance & it's pristine!"
1514 Petronia Street was chosen as the model home for the Meadows Development because it has the very best location.The house sits in a park like setting at the corner of Eisenhower Drive. The estate across the street runs from Eisenhower to Pearl Street. There's no need to worry about something dreadful being built there. The house has all the charm of an Old Town home, but all of the sophistication demanded by discerning buyers - like tall ceilings, big bathrooms, parking, pool, low cost insurances.
While all of the homes shared the same high end cabinetry and flooring, this model home has the coffered ceilings and built-in media center in the living room.
Four of the homes have two story turrets that provide both drama and utility to this home. The main floor turret is a built in office just off the kitchen. The windows look out to the park like setting which provides a distraction from dealing with the woes of the internet.
The bigger distraction is located on the far side of the living room - the private heated pool, spa, and outdoor shower. The view is totally private. You should get steady sun through mid afternoon. The foliage has nicely matured. The house has a whole house generator and additional storage located on the west side. Automatic gates open into the private alley to the covered carport.
The master bedroom and en-suite are the constitute the entire second floor of the house. The guest bedroom, shown below, is located above the carport wing. The master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and the cute turret for conjuring. The bathroom is enormous. There is a Jacuzzi tub, large shower, double sinks, and WC in the closet hallway which is HUGE! The second floor front porch over looks the estate across the street. Checkout that view.
The guest bed and bath are located in a separate section of the house over the carport. Totally privacy for the the owner, family, or guests in each part of the house. If you think you require and third bedroom, think again. Why pay an additional couple of hundred thousand dollars. Rent your family or friends a room for a day or so.
I want to share a brief pictorial history of the area before these homes were built.
This 1920 aerial photo shows Pine and Petronia Street with just one building - the Hikubess Weskyan Church which was razed in 2005 and two grand houses to the north. North Beach was located across the street to the east.The body of water is the Garrison Bight. There used to be a swimming area at the end of Division Street before the street was renamed Truman Avenue. The swimming area went away when Truman was extended eastward into what is now North Roosevelt Boulevard.
I started photographing the area in 2006 just as The Meadows Development was getting started The old church and a small apartment building on Pearl were taken down and framing began. At the same time the grand house at 720 Eisenhower Drive was being restored.
I sold 1514 Petronia Street twice, once when it was brand new and the second time when that owner moved a waterfront property. And I sold two other homes in The Meadows.
