Centered on a private courtyard, on 2 acres bordering a large greenbelt this was a custom designed and built contemporary home for the owner in 1990. Wood plank floors and 10ft high T&G ceilings with a centered Rumford style fireplace in the great room separates 2 spacious main suites each with a large bedroom, full bath and separate sitting room/office. A country style kitchen with large central island and lots of storage leads to a half bath, laundry room and back portal and garden. Built later and separate to the main house are two adjoining lovely spacious heated artist studios with full bath and sink plus an art storage room. Linked by a wrap around portal is an oversized 2 car garage with large workshop. A long portal and walled garden to the west accessed from the great room provides evening sunset views and quiet contemplation.
