I am delighted to introduce you to the lovely home located at 430 Lombard Street, a 2,250 square foot two story single family home that was constructed in 1997 from the plans of the late John J. Nelson, Sr., a designer widely noted in his profession (for his architecture, interiors, furniture, light...ing, carpet). The structure boasts many unique features and contextual motifs that are prominent in Society Hill. The front facade embodies a Flemish bond brick pattern with grapevine mortar joints - the limestone highlights (i.e., entry pilaster, horizontal banding at each level modulating the elevation height) with glazed terracotta rosette insets at the parapet frieze. A wrought iron fretwork pattern, thematically reminiscent of the adjacent Federal period homes, is present in the front door and garage transom panel windows, as well as the master bedroom French door balustrades on the second level. The front entry corridor commences a circulation axis through multi-tiered coffered ceilings with pendant light fixtures mirrored in the floor by concentric ringed marble (in white, green, and black) all terminated by the focal point of a spiral staircase ascending to a mezzanine in a two story atrium. The procession through the space is punctuated by etched glass in patterns echoing the Wrightian Prairie style revered by Mr. Nelson. Definition of spaces/zones in this open plan is created by pilasters which bear recessed panels and sconces - serving as caps in the living room for custom illuminated millwork. The dining room ceiling defines the zone with an ambiently lit coffer. The living room exhibits a sense of transparency to the garden emphasized by fenestration on either side of, and above in a clerestory, the fireplace - creating the illusion that the fire floats without a stack above it. There is Brazilian Cherry hardwood flooring throughout. On the first floor you will find a vanity room, one car garage, an eat-in-kitchen and a dining and a living room. On the second floor you will find the principal bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, 2 additional bedrooms, a hall bathroom and a laundry room. The home is located on the south side of the 400 block of Lombard Street. There are no private residences on the north side of the 400 block of Lombard Street which adds an air of privacy to the home. Immediately across the street from the home is the building that houses the Presbyterian Historical Society.
