Inside the home
This is a 1932 Tudor designed by F.C. Bodley — the same architect behind Glenhyrst Gardens — and the original millwork, leaded glass windows, gumwood mantel, and built-in china cabinet are largely intact. That kind of architectural pedigree is rare in Paris at any price point. The kitchen has been meaningfully updated: granite counters, a professional 6-burner gas range, stainless appliances, and subway tile. The upper bathroom has a clawfoot tub and glass shower. The rest of the house is well-maintained original — including cast iron radiators throughout, which means radiant heat and no central air. The basement is unfinished and adds nothing to the living space count. The rear patio with its steel pergola is a recent, quality addition. One upper bedroom still has dated green carpet. This is a house for buyers who value the bones of a well-preserved early-20th century home over uniform modern finishes.
