The Story
135 johnson avenue
Welcome to Noir 1891: turn-key luxury. Living on the coveted 100-block of lower Johnson means you can leave the car at home. Enjoy effortless strolls to morning coffee, workouts at the Club, dinner, award-winning schools, and weekend shopping. While the striking dark Victorian exterior offers exceptional curb appeal, the real magic is how effortlessly this home lives. The current owners spent years modernizing the entire infrastructure, giving you all the character of an authentic 1891 home without the historic headaches. Inside, warm, sophisticated spaces feature rich Acacia floors, spa-inspired bathrooms with TOTO bidets, automated custom silk drapery, and a dramatic marble fireplace. For entertaining, the back wall of the home folds completely open, connecting the living spaces to a sprawling Tigerwood deck and a private backyard. The level yard offers rare flexibility and is well suited for a future pool or add a garage. An original carriage house provides the perfect studio, gym or extra storage. The greatest luxury is peace of mind. With top-tier solar, full battery backup, and independent dual-zone HVAC with medical-grade air filtration, the home practically runs itself. A rare blend of historic soul, modern efficiency, and an unbeatable downtown location.
