About This Home

As of November 2014

Simply Remarkable and rare opportunity for an original owner, well-maintained Otto Seeler designed home on the south side of South Bend. Here is a chance for a piece of history from the once ND professor of architecture who designed homes in a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired style. This amazing home has so many features: family room cherry paneling was harvested from the property's land, the large kitchen has plenty of counter space, storage and light plus custom Woodmode cabinetry, main floor laundry complete with wash tub and storage, 2 septic systems (one for the 3 full baths and the other for the kitchen, laundry and 1/2 bath), 2 HVAC systems, newer roofs, lot is zoned agricultural (there is an old barn back in the woods too), original light fixtures are amazing, sliders in every room open the house up to the nature surrounding it, large deck space and sun room, private wooded lot, built as a 5 bedroom home originally (converted to 4 bedrooms now), large limestone fireplace wall in family room (wood burning) and more. If you are a lover of mid-century ranch homes, especially ones that have been very well preserved, you will not want to miss this one. It is a true piece of art!
