One of the hallmarks of this recently renovated 13-room Gold Coast home at 17 E. Goethe St. is the wide range of woods used throughout the interior. In the den, for example, there’s a custom-built entertainment center of eucalyptus wood, and in the living room, a eucalyptus-paneled wall. The kitchen features quarter-sawn white ash cabinets. In the basement, the theme is cherry wood–used for the built-in entertainment center, the built-in bar, the built-in billiard cabinet and the pantry service area. Throughout, the floors are oak. Granite is a frequent accent: brown pearl granite countertops in the kitchen, black granite around the living room fireplace and a Mongolian lilac granite vanity top in the master suite. BY THE NUMBERS: Five bedrooms, three bathrooms, three half-bathrooms, two fireplaces, a billiard room and an attached two-car garage. HISTORY: The home is the western half of a brownstone structure built in 1894 as a six-flat building.
