Description
A 1950s modernist home that reflects inspiration by america’s greatest architect, frank llyod wright, and his usonian vision. characterized by organic materials, a low-pitched roof & large cantilevered overhangs for passive solar heating & natural cooling, in addition to natural lighting with clerestory windows. with little exposure to the front street side, the more private rear sides are wholly open to outside views, adding a strong visual connection between the interior & exterior spaces. echoing wright’s philosophy of “organic architecture,” the kitchen showcases bespoke, streamlined carpentry that easily fuses artistry & function, creating a space that is both effortlessly elegant & deeply practical. signature bleached wood millwork & cabinetry extend throughout the main living space, seamlessly integrating custom built-ins that include a dry bar sideboard, open bookshelves, discreet sliding cupboards, & dedicated storage for a bridge set with card tables and folding chairs. the use of organic materials carries through the space, with hardwood floors & highlighted by a ceiling crafted from naturally finished mahogany planks that add warmth & texture overhead. originally a more modest three-bedroom home, the space was transformed with the addition of an expansive lower-level primary suite, complete with a huge walk-in closet & tiled bath featuring a curb less shower, jetted tub, double vanity, & bidet. the private sitting area is surrounded by nature & natural light with a private patio that flows seamlessly out to beautifully maintained woodland gardens. many of the home's original details have been thoughtfully preserved over the years, while key elements—such as most of the windows—have been replaced to ensure comfort & longevity. both original fireplaces remain in use offering warmth & character in equal measure—one a classic wood-burning hearth, the other updated with a gas insert. beautifully landscaped gardens, an oversized attached 2 car garage, well maintained fully screened in porch & a private deck add to the convenience & enjoyment this home offers. make an appointment to view this very special home today.
