Perched high above New Albany in the ever-desirable Silver Hills is an iconic piece of architecture few know about and even fewer have the opportunity to call their own. This 1957 mid-century modern home, designed by famed architect John Johansen, has been thoughtfully brought back to its original splendor over the last decade. There is much to appreciate about this house from the walnut paneling to the live edge bookcases to the wooded vistas best viewed from the panoramic picture windows across the back of the house. The living room is most spectacular in the cooler months when there is a crackling fire in the round, creek stone fireplace. The home wraps around a cozy courtyard perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet dinner under the grand magnolia tree. Enjoy a cup of coffee perched amongst the tree canopy on the west-facing balcony complete with custom art railing. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and ample living space throughout the u-shaped floor plan. Situated on a secluded lot at the end of Dent Avenue, it is a true retreat from everyday life. This historic house is a piece of artwork in and of itself and is calling for a steward to appreciate it and lovingly take it into its next phase.
