Welcome to your dream home! This extraordinary Mid Century Modern masterpiece, extensively renovated in 2020 to blend timeless design with modern luxuries, exudes a style that truly belongs in a magazine, and offers unparalleled features and upgrades that will take your breath away.
Almost completely overhauled in 2020, this home boasts a new high-efficiency furnace. The exterior captivates with its rare Mid Century Modern appeal, set atop a stunning elevation that would command a premium in new construction.

This residence boasts timeless design, luxurious finishes, and modern conveniences, all set on an expansive 1.15 acre lot.
Situated on a coveted and impressive 1.15 acre lot, the backyard is a true paradise. It offers flat, usable space perfect for play, relaxation, and wildlife viewing, with ample shade from the wooded perimeter. The massive driveway can accommodate up to 10 cars, perfect for your entertaining needs, and there’s an EV outlet for electric vehicles. Two exterior sheds provide additional storage.
Step inside to discover a professionally designed kitchen with white Shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, gorgeous black matte honed leather granite countertops, and hardwood floors. Sunlight streams through floor-to-ceiling windows, highlighting the spacious island and extensive storage. The adjacent butler’s pantry/coffee bar features the same exquisite finishes, adding a touch of luxury to your daily routine.
The sunroom, living, and dining areas are the heart of this home, showcasing original Mid Century design elements like cedar walls, cathedral ceilings with beautiful beams, and three full walls of windows overlooking the private backyard. The space is accentuated by original brick Herringbone floors, south-facing skylights, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace.
The primary bedroom is a serene retreat with cathedral ceilings, a custom Mid Century feature wall, and an exposed brick accent. Enjoy peaceful views through floor-to-ceiling windows and access to the backyard through a new sliding door. The primary bathroom, also renovated in 2020, features heated tile floors, a large glass-enclosed shower with exquisite tile work, and modern fixtures.
Additional bedrooms are spacious and well-lit, each offering unique features like cathedral ceilings, modern ceiling fans, and stylish wainscoting. The renovated bathrooms boast high-quality tile work, modern vanities, and ample storage space.
The lower level houses a versatile family/recreation room with LVP flooring, recessed lighting, and plenty of natural sunlight. This expansive space can be tailored to your needs, whether you envision a second living room, playroom, workout area, or home theater.
The mudroom is a dream come true, and includes custom-built cubbies, a cherry wood bench, waterproof flooring, and modern tile.
The laundry room, also renovated in 2020, offers additional storage and access to under-the-stair storage space. A dedicated storage room provides even more space to keep your home organized.
