Where the church bells of nearby St. Michael’s mark the rhythm of the day, the story of 1721 Fern Court unfolds. Originally built as a horse stable in the early 1900s, the two-story property was converted into a Single-Family Home in 1987 before its exquisite reimagining in the early 2000s into the stunning three-bedroom residence it is today.

Sitting on a rare fifty-foot-wide lot with an expansive private garden, the home’s history is felt from the moment you pass through the wrought iron gates and brick courtyard into 3,100 square feet of refinement. Soaring 17-foot vaulted ceilings rise above wooden beams and rich exposed brick, with sunlight pouring in from skylights and windows, casting soft shadows throughout the day.

At the heart of the home, a De Giulio kitchen anchors the space with custom SieMatic cabinetry, substantial Calacatta Gold marble and a striking La Cornue range, while a custom, built-in banquette invites slow mornings over coffee and long dinners with friends.

Just beyond, a wood burning fireplace glows quietly in the living room, the view stretching out to the private courtyard where the city suddenly falls away. A setting reminiscent of a quaint European village.

Across the rare fifty-foot-wide lot, a garden designed by Hoerr Schaudt unfolds in layered stone and greenery, with a firepit and built-in grill nestled within the landscape. Expansive in scale, yet intimate in the moments it creates.

Vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams continue into the primary suite that occupies its own wing, overlooking the courtyard and a glimpse of St. Michael’s steeple. On the first level, two additional bedrooms, a second powder room and an intimate den with built-in bookshelves quietly frame the courtyard.

A two-car garage completes the home, surrounded by the timeless character of Old Town.
