Defined by its clean architectural lines, expansive walls of glass, and seamless indoor-outdoor integration, this all-brick residence embodies the essence of iconic Mid-Century design, thoughtfully updated to deliver both character and turnkey comfort.
A restored terra cotta entry and exposed brick foyer introduce the home’s distinctive aesthetic, drawing you toward a stunning central courtyard framed by sliding glass doors and clerestory windows. This striking design creates a natural connection between interior spaces and the surrounding landscape, ideal for both everyday living and elevated entertainment.
The main living wing features a dramatic open-concept layout with soaring vaulted ceilings, anchored by a double-sided gas fireplace and custom built-ins. The chef’s kitchen has been fully reimagined with custom soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, designer lighting, and a premium Dacor appliance suite creating a true entertaining showplace.
A private office, powder room, and expansive family room - complete with a wood-burning fireplace and vaulted ceilings—provide additional flexibility and comfort within the home.
The private bedroom wing offers a tranquil retreat, with all rooms positioned along the opposite side of the courtyard for optimal separation. The primary suite features a custom walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with a freestanding soaking tub and Kohler electrostatic shower system. Three additional bedrooms—one ensuite—are complemented by a beautifully updated hall bath, each space reflecting a seamless blend of modern refinement and original architectural character.
A well-appointed laundry/mudroom offers both functionality and style, with custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, and direct outdoor access.
Enhancing the home’s versatility, a private-entry in-law or guest suite above the attached oversized two-car garage includes a full bath. Natural gas and water lines are in place for a kitchenette—ideal for multigenerational living, extended stays or a dedicated home office.
The oversized garage is finished with a professionally installed Aspartic coated floor, upgraded lighting and abundant overhead storage.
Surrounded by mature trees and professionally landscaped grounds, this exceptional property offers both privacy and convenience, with easy access to major commuter routes and top-rated schools.
For the discerning buyer seeking architectural significance paired with modern luxury—this is truly a one-of-a-kind offering!
