Since 1918, this Italian Renaissance Revival icon has illuminated the Government Hill neighborhood from its place overlooking Pennsylvania Circle's manicured park. Generations of owners have preserved the genuine and flawless craftsmanship in every line and detail of this historic Trost-designed masterpiece: from it butterfly cleavage marble fireplaces, to its breathtaking, commanding pillars, the original structure remains throughout, reflecting an era when fine homes were not just impressive, but solid and sheltering as well. The historically faithful, tasteful refurbishments successfully preserve the home's origin in El Paso's rich and booming youth. From its hand-restored crystal chandeliers to its well cared-for original wood floors to the 1940s vintage kitchen range just like the one used by famed chef Julia Child, this home glows with authenticity. Carefully sited on 2/3 acre and built with countless fine amenities, this showcase of fine living is an architecturally exceptional, desirable property. |
