What's special
If your first inclination is to paint the paneling white, keep looking, this is not the house for you. If you are tired of cookie-cutter houses and appreciate attention to detail and expert craftsmanship, read on, this is the house for you! Offered for the first time, this owner-designed and built Mid-Century Modern home is a stunning example of craftsmanship! The owner designed and built many homes in the surrounding neighborhood and even named the street. This MCM home is the perfect combination of updated and original charm! The large living room is the showpiece of this house, featuring a wood and beam vaulted ceiling, a stone fireplace wall, and gorgeous walnut paneling. The paneling, kitchen, and dining room cabinets, dining room shoji doors, and flooring were designed and crafted of solid walnut by the homeowner. The cozy dining room is perfect for holidays and entertainment. The nook with glass-doored cabinets was used as a small library and reading space when not occupied by the kids' table on holidays. Four bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the second floor and an additional bedroom/office/playroom and half bath on the lower level provide plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The sun porch is the perfect place to start your morning or end your evening. The car enthusiast will find ample space in the multiple garages on the property. The home includes a 2-car attached garage in front, a 1-car behind it, and an additional standalone 2-car garage making a total of 5 garage spaces! New carpet in the living room and upper level, as well as LVP in the lower level. Fresh paint throughout and updated fixtures in three of the bathrooms. Along with the custom walnut cabinets and original atomic starburst counters, the kitchen features a prep sink on the island, a stove and microwave replaced in 2023, and the dishwasher in 2024. A home such as this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, come live on Easy Street!
