Property Description
A Piece of Westmont History Awaits You. The home was originally constructed in 1924 by the current owners family and is one of the first homes to be built when Westmont was founded. In 2010/2011 the home was completely renovated. The renovation was a complete gutting of all its interior back to the floor and wall structures which are 8 inches of solid masonry, not a veneer, set upon a 10-inch-thick cast in place foundation that is solid. The original gabled roofs were completely removed and a properly engineered architect designed full second floor was added in a manner that was aesthetically sensitive to the original homes design intent and would have been appropriate at the time of construction in 1924. Additionally, the renovation included reconstruction of the entire first floor and finished basement per original architectural elements details. All electrical, plumbing, hvac systems as well as all underground utilities including main water service, sewer, gas lines were replaced also at that time. Who should ever be the next caretaker of this property choose to make this their home is getting a great one that will stand the test of the next 100 years. A summary of renovation highlights include: All exterior masonry was fully restored, tuck pointed cleaned. Pella Architectural Series windows, doors. Windows factory stained/varnished. All windows throughout home have Graber 2" slat with tapes stained to match windows. Second floor framing 2x6 construction with high efficiency insulation. Roof framing is custom truss construction. All frames set at 16" o.c. spacing (not 24inch) Roofing is CertainTeed Landmark TL Shingles with a 50-year life at 340 pound per square. Underlayment for architectural shingles is modern Titanium UDL synthetic roofing. Exterior cladding, if not solid masonry, is John Hardi siding with factory finishes. 200A electrical service with 60A panel in the garage. Patio cabana also has electric and outdoor speakers. The interior trim throughout is solid oak with traditional natural stain and varnish .
