This spectacular Mid-Century retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, convenience, and style. Set against a backdrop of forest and greenspace, the property has been thoughtfully updated to combine timeless architectural character such as built-ins with modern amenities like a gourmet kitchen with 6 burner gas stove, stainless appliances, beautifully crafted cabinetry, and quartz counters. With over $300,000 in upgrades since 2015 this home is a true lifestyle destination—whether you’re hosting parties, enjoying quiet evenings around the firepit, or working from home in the detached studio. Outside, the thoughtfully designed landscaping includes a fern garden and natural plantings that blend the house with its environment. At the heart of the outdoor space is a sparkling saltwater pool, framed by expansive decking inviting summer entertaining, relaxation, and fun. A robot vacuum system keeps the pool easy to maintain, making it a low-effort, high-enjoyment centerpiece, with the forest canopy offering a sense of privacy. Polished hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, reflecting the natural light that streams in through large windows. The main level unfolds with the light and openness characteristic of Mid-Century architecture, with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms including the Primary offering an en-suite and a slider to the deck. The lower level offers 1 bedroom & bathroom, has a gorgeous 500SF family room, with large windows and a slider that opens up to the pool, deck, and overlooks forest greenspace. There's also 2 additional bonus rooms, as well as a kitchenette / laundry room giving you 2 different areas to enjoy or entertain in, possibly even allowing for a two family set up. Amazing Walking Trails close by as well. There is so much this amazing home has to offer! Wine and Cheese evening open house 10/07 6:30 to 8:30 PM.
