About This Home
Welcome to the iconic Evans House - a striking work of mid-century modern architecture. Designed in 1961 by renowned architect James Evans, this one-of-a-kind residence showcases a striking hyperbolic paraboloid roof that allows for a completely open main level filled with soaring floor-to-ceiling windows. Every room is immersed in natural light and surrounded by serene wooded views, offering unmatched privacy and a sense of retreat. The main level features an effortless open flow with a primary suite, living room, dining room with a see-through fireplace, office/study, powder room, and expansive sliding doors that connect seamlessly to the wraparound deck. The fully finished, walk-out lower level offers four additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a dedicated laundry room, and storage. This rare architectural gem is not just a home, but an experience in design, nature, and modern living.
