Overview

2218 Monument was built by Scarborough and Howell, an engineer and architect team who built just a dozen mansions and townhouses together in the Fan. The team hit their stride in 1911 at 2218 Monument with an interior and exterior that is one of the best, and best preserved, examples of the highly decorative classical style which emerged in the early 1900s. With 5 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths, it is a perfect sized townhouse. It has impressive mahogany mouldings, columns, 8 phenomenal mantels -some updated with gas, a turned stair hall, palladian windows, and inlaid floors in varying patterns of oak and mahagony. Each room unfolds with surprises including an oversized built-in mirror, in-laid pocket doors, stained and leaded glass windows, and original storage closets galore. Adding to the home’s timeless appeal is a renovation by Mark Franko Builders that is as classic as the original design with comforts of today. The modernized marble butler's pantry, chef's kitchen, and primary suite have strong lines and gorgeous materials that could last another 100+ years. Upstairs there is a comfortable family lounge flooded with light from a giant palladian window. The primary suite has a bay window with a cushioned window seat, dressing room, and a marble bath with an enviable glass shower stall with multiple heads. A large double vanity with linen storage and a w.c.complete the bath. A second bedroom is en suite with the hall bath. There is a full-sized laundry room and a small bedroom/ office finishing the second floor. On the third floor 2 large sunny bedrooms, a study or play room, and a hex-tiled bath with a large soaking tub is great for guests or kids. The gardens are easy-care with hardscape and beds and porches for enjoying the street scene or the quiet courtyard. It goes without saying that this is one of the most conveniently located and beautiful blocks of architecture in The Fan. If you are looking for a treasure of an old house that is wonderfully updated and cared for, This.Is.It.
