About This Home
As of June 2025This Charming Mid-CenturyI would go out tonight, but this househas wrapped me in its heart.A 1953 Mid-Century Modest—handsome, sincere, and full of light.It stands quietly in Highland Park,where the streets hum softly,and the trees lean in like old friends.Inside, sunlight spills acrossfreshly refinished oak floors—a nod to timeless design,where form follows feeling.The kitchen? A study inrestraint and grace:solid surface counters,sleek lines, and steelthat shines—but never shouts.To the rear, a bright additionstretches out like a well-timed sigh—perfect for records and red wine,or letting the quiet in.Slide open the glass,step out to a private deck,where thoughts go to restand nothing is hurried.The lower level, recently redoneand full of space,offers more than shelter:room to think at the end of the day,a place for games to play,a room to wash the past away.New windows. New walls.They pamper life’s complexity,with machines that coolwhen the world grows cruel,and machines that warmthrough winter's beautiful storms.And should a double-decker bus comelet it take you somewhere good—parks, cafés, trails, a vintage theater...or wherever your better days begin.Because sometimes, the loveliest thingsare not the loudest on the street,but the ones that simply stay.This charming home awaits your arrival.Come out and find the one that you love—and who loves you.
