About this home
Rare opportunity to own a completely remodeled, restored, and reimagined mid-century modern ranch situated on over .78 acres! Originally built in 1963, this home has undergone an incredible transformation, taken down to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt while keeping the character and timeless feel that makes this style of home so special. New siding, roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, countertops, paint, doors, and so much more make this feel like a brand-new home (it almost is) on the kind of established lot that's nearly impossible to recreate.
Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 3-car garage with new concrete, and an incredible amount of finished living space, the home sits on a beautiful corner lot surrounded by mature trees along a quiet dead-end road. A walkway connects the front and back of the property, and the outdoor spaces were designed to be enjoyed just as much as the inside.
The main level is bright, open, and gorgeous! Wide-plank LVP flooring carries throughout the living spaces, while a custom fireplace with beautiful accents anchors the sun-filled living room. The spacious kitchen opens directly into the living area and offers plenty of cabinetry and prep space, stainless steel appliances, a timeless backsplash, custom shelving, and room to actually move and gather. And the walk-in pantry? IMPRESSIVE.
Just off the main living space, the sunroom may quickly become one of your favorite rooms in the house. From here, step onto the covered deck overlooking the expansive backyard and the incredible setting for quiet mornings, summer evenings, or entertaining.
The main-floor primary suite feels like its own retreat with a spacious walk-in closet featuring customizable shelving and a beautifully finished private bathroom with dual vanities, a tiled walk-in shower, custom glass door, and built-in bench.
And then there's the lower level. This isn't an afterthought.. it feels like an entirely separate living space! A HUGE family room gives you endless flexibility, while beautiful built-in cabinetry and dual-zone refrigerators make entertaining easy (one side for the adults, one for the kids or guests!). The refrigerators can even be locked when needed. Spacious bedrooms, another bathroom, tons of storage, and a dedicated laundry area with cabinetry and plenty of room to work make the lower level just as functional as it is beautiful. From here, walk directly out to the covered patio, backyard, or take the stairs back up to the deck.
Even the additional building out back has been completely reimagined and is ready for whatever its next owner dreams up. Workshop? Hobby space? Playhouse? Additional storage? With two separate levels, you don't even have to choose just one!
It's rare to find the character of an established mid-century home, the space and mature trees of a .78+ acre lot, AND the peace of mind that comes with a renovation this extensive. This one truly gives you the best of both worlds, and then some! There is so much more to see in person. Call today to schedule your showing!...
