Buying Here: Fox Chapel
"I was inspired by two or three homes that I had seen on Fifth Avenue in Shadyside. I liked the look of the stone. I wanted to re-create it."
Anyone who lays eyes on the exterior of the Renaissance Revival-style home at 422 Fox Chapel Road in Fox Chapel would agree that the owner/builder nailed it. The inside is a whole different design story.
The stately home, which sits on 2.2 acres, is on the market for $3.8 million through Marie Pace of Howard Hanna Real Estate Services (412-361-4000, ext. 265 or www.howardhanna.com ).
Its interior design could be best described as modern art deco with classic touches. There isn't a surface you don't want to touch, sit on or envelop yourself in. It was designed to be used, and nothing feels off-limits.
County: $398 (4.69 mills) Earned income tax: 1% History: Fox Chapel was home to the Seneca Indian tribe until the late 18th century. History documents the first white settler as James Powers, who arrived around 1790. The land was later named for John Fox, a German immigrant who landed in 1831 and farmed the land around the present Faith United Methodist Church until his death in 1889. His daughter donated some land to the Methodist Protestant Church for a chapel to be named his honor.The owner, who asked not to be identified, and his wife, an interior designer, have a young, active family.
The house has five bedrooms, six full bathrooms and three half-bathrooms, but its heart is the 20-by-40-foot kitchen with shapely, sinewy curves that are lit for dramatic effect. In the ceiling, recessed lighting peeks out from a tiny bulkhead; small, red handblown-glass pendants hang above the island; and the 2-inch-thick glass countertops have a lighted edge that can be dimmed. The floor-to-ceiling curly maple cabinets are finished with a high-gloss poured acrylic, and a glass tile wall infuses the whole room with a jolt of color in shades of red, purple and tan..
The center island seats five and has an offset ancillary counter with a decorative design in the glass. The lower counter has a cooktop with a potfiller, a stainless-steel hood and lots of storage. .
The kitchen is outfitted with GE Profile appliances, including a 400-bottle wine room with temperature and light controls. The bottles sit on dark acrylic ruby-red rods that impart a warm glow that won't affect the wine quality.
Another fun feature is a serpentine-shaped bar sink sunk right into the glass counter between the kitchen and the great room. Its long, slinky shape is great for parties.
