About this home

A small handful homes become landmarks through decades of thoughtful care and unforgettable architecture. Built in 1937, this classic Tudor has been impeccably preserved and expertly updated without compromising its original character. For nearly five decades, one family served as careful stewards of this remarkable home. Positioned on a corner lot in Heritage Hills, the home stands as one of the neighborhood's finest expressions of Tudor Revival architecture. Leaded diamond-pane windows, original wrought iron railings, a slate roof, and a dramatic corbelled brick chimney stack rising from a rough-cut stone base reflect the craftsmanship and architectural vision that have defined the home since day one. After 75 years of careful guardianship and preservation, a 2012 renovation superbly improved upon and complemented the existing property. Reaching well beyond the surfaces, it reinvigorated the home's floor plan with a reconfigured second level and an open kitchen connected to the breakfast room. Every major system was updated, including the electrical, plumbing, mechanical systems, insulation, and roof. Upon entering the home, a gracious foyer, anchored by a sweeping curved staircase, sets the tone for a home designed to welcome all. The kitchen features custom-line appliances, a bright breakfast room overlooking the pool, and a true scullery connecting the kitchen and formal dining room. Enclosed by a brick privacy fence, the pool and surrounding patio create a secluded outdoor setting. Upstairs are four gracious bedroom suites. Above the detached garage, an apartment with a kitchenette and full bath provides additional accommodations. An original finished basement includes a den, hidden bar, gym, laundry, and half bath. Almost a century after it was built, 440 NW 16th remains the defining Tudor residence in Heritage Hills. Its unmistakable architecture has endured through the decades, remarkably intact and as perfect as it was in 1937.
