A house of intrigue, and a home made for house parties. The Edward Nisbet house, an 1896 colonial revival, is home to a legendary speakeasy basement, but there's so much to see before you get there. From the large front porch - suitable as an outdoor room - you enter through a simply remarkable front door, with a square beveled glass window with curved radius corners. "Unlike anything I've ever seen," remarks an Indiana historic preservation expert who was shown the door. Inside, the foyer opens to the grand staircase, a front parlor perfect for a grand piano, and a back parlor with custom Fehrenbacher built-in shelving and cabinets. Down the hall, the formal dining room works well for a billiards hall, complete with a full guest bathroom. Behind the back staircase, a large kitchen sits off the newly added covered back patio, with its own outdoor kitchen as well. Upstairs, the front bedroom includes an ample dressing room, and heading to the rear of the home you'll find a second bedroom, a hallway laundry and linen storage room, and full bath with antique clawfoot tub with original wood trimmed edging. At the rear of the home, behind the rear staircase, an enormous mainsuite is ready for your mainsuite needs, with a fireplace flanked seating area, a massive walk-in closet, a double shower bath experience, and an excess of storage. The home's 3rd floor entertainment area includes a second complete custom kitchen, a wall of TVs for sports center mastery, and additional sitting, dining, and storage areas. Off the rear of the 3rd floor, you'll find the private roof-top terrace. Below, the back yard is party-ready with new landscaping, water feature and flagstone, and a patio with covered outdoor kitchen. Back through the mainfloor kitchen, or through an additional hidden door, each with security code, you'll find the home's hidden gem. The low-lit, basement level speakeasy, having been featured in Evansville Living multiple times, includes a granite bar with a custom martini glass illuminated leg - designed to be able to hold water for a gold fish. With the right offer, you'll be party-ready yourself, as there is an extensive list of options for personal property inclusions in the sale. The time for this home's next future is here, and it is simply waiting for you.
