Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a home where architectural character, privacy and comfortable living come together beautifully. Set on an oversized corner lot in a sought-after southside neighborhood, this custom mid-century residence has a rich design history - its original plans were featured in House Beautiful's Building Manual. From the moment you enter the enclosed courtyard, the home feels like a private retreat. Expansive windows bring the outdoors in, including striking floor-to-ceiling picture windows in the living room overlooking the garden. The inviting family room, with its beamed ceiling, fireplace and built-in bookcase, connects naturally to both the courtyard and backyard. The kitchen enjoys backyard views and offers generous cabinetry, a built-in desk and a comfortable dining area. Hardwood floors, a classic clay tile roof and distinctive architectural details throughout reflect the craftsmanship and character of the home. The thoughtfully designed bedroom wing includes four well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own closets and built-ins. The hall bathroom is conveniently located for both family and guests. The spacious primary suite offers a private en suite bath, built-in drawers and sliding glass door providing direct access to the backyard and pool. The secluded backyard offers exceptional privacy and plenty of room to create your own outdoor retreat. An attractive in-ground pool serves as the centerpiece, while the generous grounds provide numerous possibilities for conversation areas, outdoor dining, lounging and entertaining. The spacious two-car garage offers high ceilings and ample storage. The home also features leased solar with a Tesla battery backup, providing added energy efficiency and backup power capability. Unique homes like this are increasingly hard to find - a special combination of mid-century character, generous living spaces, privacy and gracious indoor-outdoor living.
