Custom built and designed in 1979 for an influential physician and their family, this incredible property is flooded with light and utilizes many of Frank Lloyd Wright's design concepts. In particular the architectural use of compression and expansion which creates the dynamic mix of open and private spaces. This landmark property sits nestled back on a huge full acre and a half lot, surrounded by trees, offering a variety of outdoor spaces to enjoy privately or with friends and family. It is truly a one of a kind home just waiting for it's next visionary owner. The compelling layout begins with a huge and airy main living and dining space, floor to ceiling stone double sided fireplace, tons of natural light, private sitting nook with built-in bar, and outdoor access to two decks, and the backyard. Behind the dining room is a very large eat-in kitchen with keeping room, covered porch, spacious laundry room, and pantry space. Leaving this space you work your way into the more private spaces, with 3 full bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms just down from the keeping room. In the other direction, just up from the keeping room, is an additional bedroom and bathroom perfect for a home office or guest suite, leads on to the top floor which is entirely reserved for the primary owners suite. The impressive owner’s suite boasts more soaring ceilings, walk in closet, a huge bathroom with double shower heads, separate soaking tub, double vanities, and it’s own private balcony gently overlooking the front of the property. Last but not least, on the terrace level, there is a full in-law suite complete with kitchenette, private entrance, full bath, and flexible living and sleeping areas. If you don’t need an additional suite, this space is also perfect for a large game room, entertainment space, workshop extension, or home office. The garage is easily accessible from both the main living spaces, and the terrace level spaces. This home is anything but your traditional 4 bed 2 bath home with a door. This home is a living piece of architecture and calls to those who don’t fit a traditional mold and want an organic space to live and evolve, along with the property.
