About This Home
As of February 2018A rare find designed by renowned Chicago architects Keck and Keck, positioned carefully on 1.66 acres of forested grounds, adjacent to a golf course and protected wetlands. This handsome home offers ~4700sf of comfortable modern living within an authentic mid-century aesthetic. Public and private spaces receive equal attention, framed in cedar, granite, and huge swaths of floor-to-ceiling glass that invite the outside in and amplify multi-season enjoyment of the outdoors and local wildlife. Cozy passive solar and radiant systems remain integral as originally envisioned decades ago. Built-in cabinets throughout offer function as well as architectural authenticity. Concrete floors warm and cool by the season. Stone walls add texture and palette complexity. A floating staircase in the style of Wright's Fallingwater lifts residents to private bedrooms, including a ~700sf master suite with a wood-burning stove. Simple pleasures of home abound in this very special oasis.
