About This Home
As of April 2025Timeless mid-century modern with stylish pool and lush grounds, this quintessential 1957 exemplar is being sold by the family of the original owners. Classic concepts of open floor plan and walls of glass resound throughout. Verdant courtyards and patios emphasize the connection with the outdoors. Light wood paneling adorns the public rooms and vaulted ceilings. An impressive stone fireplace with raised hearth centers the living room, which opens to a covered rear patio. Careful upgrades over the decades have enhanced the kitchen and four full bathrooms. The primary suite hosts two full baths, two walk-in closets, a reading area, and a private study nestled in a wooded corner. A second suite with wet-bar and mini-frig sits in the opposite wing, once a rumpus room and now beautifully appointed for guests. The sumptuous backyard is tastefully landscaped, focusing on a gorgeous pool. You will never chase friends and visitors away, but you'll be there longest. Quiet oases pepper the estate, close to nature and so happy to call this home.
