A home where history and hospitality live together beautifully. This architecturally unique home, mid-century modern tucked away on almost four peaceful acres in the heart of Buckhannon but secluded! This remarkable home offers a rare blend of thoughtful craftsmanship, warm materials, and timeless design. Featuring vaulted wood ceilings, exposed beams, and a distinctive curved brick accent wall, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home reflects the style and innovation made famous in Better Homes & Gardens’ late 1940's “Five Star Homes”—inspired by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright and his Taliesin apprentices like John Lautner and Lois Davidson Gottlieb. Inside, you’ll find a bright and inviting layout with large windows (passive solar in living room) that fill the space with natural light, newly remodeled one year ago kitchen with maple cabinets, large living and den with fireplaces, a spacious dining area, and a private primary suite. Three additional bedrooms provide versatile options for guests, work, or relaxation. Comfort is modernized with a mini-split system and radiant water floor heating, providing energy-efficient warmth year-round. Flooring includes parquet, ceramic tile, vinyl, and carpet, enhancing both style and function. Step outside to a backyard designed for connection and quiet: enjoy a patio or port that can entertain up to 30 guests, surrounded by flagstone, flower beds, and mature landscaping. The detached garage (measuring 23’ x 17’) offers ample space, while the long concrete driveway adds both privacy and curb appeal. Whether you’re seeking peaceful seclusion, rich architectural character, or room to stretch out, this home is a rare opportunity to own a timeless style with modern comfort—set in a private, park-like location. Close and convenient to city amenities: main street, Festival Friday, parks, schools, hospital college etc. proximity No drive bys please.
