At the end of the lane on Carter Avenue in Midtown Columbus sits a beautiful 20th-century home with a classic elegance that doesn’t lose a modern touch. In the early 1920s, Rebecca Flournoy Hamburger built a house next to Tranquilla, and according to family tradition, this was her summer cottage. But the city directory shows various occupants from 1923 to 1947 when Mrs. Hamburger became a permanent resident.

In the 1960s, after the Woolfolk family sold their antebellum Wynnton Road house to AFLAC, they bought the Hamburger home. Edward Neal designed the remodeling of the house at that time, which included enlarging the structure and giving it a new front façade.

This home features four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one partial bathroom and is just over 3,000 square feet of space. At the front of the house a beautiful entryway with a welcoming foyer introduces the parlor and dining room fitted with floor length windows and extensive elegant crown molding. The home boasts gorgeous hardwood floors, immaculate detailing, and soaring ceilings that create a bright and warm feel.

The charming kitchen has stainless steel gas range and ample cabinet space with a wonderful walk-in pantry. The living room area also hosts plenty of storage space with beautiful walls of cabinetry.

Classic elegance untarnished by the passage of time defines this richly detailed 1923 residence. The interior features gorgeous hardwood floors, immaculate molding and details, and soaring ceilings. The light-filled spaces are perfect for today's relaxed style of living featuring a well-proportioned parlor with fireplace, an inviting great room boasting a wall of cabinetry, a uniquely shaped dining room, and an idyllic courtyard poised for incomparable entertaining.
