Description

This 1969 split-foyer is the Rara Avis of mid-century moderns. These owners--only the second--had a mission: modernize the home to today's standards while preserving so many of the details that make mid-mods real estate candy. You will find original & repurposed materials throughout this renovation. On the main floor is an open floorplan kitchen, dining room, and living room, a big deck that wraps around to the kitchen. The main bedroom has a large walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom with a no curb...This 1969 split-foyer is the Rara Avis of mid-century moderns.

The main bedroom has a large walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom with a no curb shower (w/signature foot nook to make shaving a cinch!). Two additional large bedrooms and a hall bath round out the main floor. The lower level offers a bedroom and bathroom plus a family room, mud room, laundry, wet bar, and wine closet. Walk out onto a large patio nestled into the private, fenced backyard. A large 2-car carport has two closets for yard/garden storage. BONUS: this home is part of the coveted Colony Park neighborhood so your dues mean: summertime pool! Neighborhood parties!
