About This Home

As of April 2019

This 4-bedroom 2.5 bath ranch home is a Mid-Century gem on a large private lot in a fabulous location, designed by renowned architect Chan/Rader, as featured in Better Homes & Garden circa 1962. A spacious living room with Cathedral ceiling and bamboo flooring features a gas fireplace with floor to ceiling marble. Newer Pella sliders and extra long casement windows throughout bring the outdoors in and allow access to a deluxe hot tub. The reimagined open plan kitchen has granite tops, cherry cabinets, high end stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry, and is open to the breakfast area, dining and family rooms. The family room with a 2nd fireplace has abundant built-in cabinetry and bamboo flooring, providing additional space to entertain. Over-sized sliders lead to another of the four brick patios and a professionally landscaped and fenced yard. The serene master suite boasts hardwood flooring, vast closet space, ensuite bath and dressing area. Three more bedrooms (2 with cork flooring), another 1-1/2 baths and a convenient 1st floor laundry complete the main floor layout. Truly a special home, it has had many updates in the last year including $35k worth of landscaping. Please see inserts for updates.
