About This Home

Homes like this don't come along often! This magnificently built, one-owner home is situated on 5 acres & has been lovingly maintained since it was custom designed & constructed in 1963 by Jerry Duggan. Stepping into the entryway, you're immediately transported by its midcentury charm--anchored by natural fieldstone flooring & a stunning Swedish glass pendant that casts an inviting glow. The craftsmanship continues into the kitchen, where custom birch cabinetry, copper hardware, & thoughtfully designed built-ins create both beauty & function. The whole-home intercom and radio system--an impressive feature for its time--speaks to the level of innovation and detail poured into this home. Don't miss your chance to own this unique property, complete with a shed & space to spread out and enjoy!
