Restoration Reimagined: A Collaboration Between Simply Perfect and Boulevard Properties Perfectly situated along the Boulevard in the heart of McKennan Park, a few short blocks from McKennan Park, this extraordinary 1930s Arts and Crafts home has been meticulously restored and thoughtfully reimagined in a partnership between Simply Perfect and Boulevard Properties. The property blends timeless architectural beauty with uncompromising modern luxury. Every decision throughout the restoration was guided by a commitment to preserving the home’s historic integrity, with original architectural details carefully restored and missing elements faithfully recreated to honor the home’s original design and character, while adding all of the luxuries a modern buyer expects. Offering more than 5, 600 square feet of living space, the home features five spacious bedrooms, each with its own private en-suite bathroom, as well as three additional half bathrooms and is eligible to receive an 8-year historic property tax moratorium based upon the pre-renovation value. The craftsmanship is evident from the moment you enter the home through the original arched entry door. Original and recreated architectural details—including stunning leaded glass windows, an elegant open staircase, oversized millwork, applied moldings, solid one-panel doors, vintage glass doorknobs, and beautiful 1½-inch white oak flooring throughout captures the elegance and character of the home’s original era. Designed for both everyday living and exceptional entertaining, the home features an expansive chef’s kitchen, a butler’s pantry, wet bar, and generous gathering spaces with two fireplaces and flooded with natural light. Behind its historic charm lies the confidence and efficiency of virtually new construction. A new insulated concrete form (ICF) foundation creates an incredible lower level with soaring 11-foot finished ceilings, while all-new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems—including five independently controlled heating and cooling zones—provide exceptional comfort, efficiency and performance throughout the home. Modern conveniences have been seamlessly integrated with a Control4 home automation system, security system, in-ceiling speakers, and pre-wiring for whole-home audio/video, lighting control, and video surveillance allows for modern amenities not normally found in homes from this period. Outside, professionally designed landscaping surrounds a beautiful brick courtyard, creating an inviting outdoor retreat, while the attached three-car garage offers everyday convenience that is difficult to find in McKennan Park. This is more than a renovation—it is a painstaking restoration and reimagination that celebrates the craftsmanship of the past while delivering the comfort, technology, and quality of a luxury new home. This is an exceptionally rare offering in one of Sioux Falls’ most coveted neighborhoods.
