Not a flip.
A thoughtful restoration.
This authentic Mid-Century Modern residence preserves the architecture buyers seek—clerestory windows, exposed beams, original hardwood floors, warm wood paneling, custom built-ins, walls of glass, and an effortless relationship between interior spaces, landscape, and light.
Design & Architecture
Warm wood, natural light, and iconic MCM lines.
The expansive living and dining spaces form the heart of the home, with soaring beamed ceilings, clerestory windows, generous walls of glass, original paneling, built-in shelving, designer lighting, and a gas fireplace that lends warmth to the open plan.
The separate fourth bedroom offers exceptional flexibility as a guest room, private office, artist studio, fitness space, or creative retreat.
