Experience the flow of space and harmony a private 5-acre sanctuary where mid-century soul meets meticulous architectural restoration. Set among park-like grounds and hundreds of flowering trees, this retreat-like residence is wrapped by protected conservation land on two sides, delivering incomparable privacy and a serene stage for entertaining, work, and retreat. From the views of Middletown Valley and South Mountain to 1960s design roots, to modern comfort, the home embodies seclusion without sacrificing accessibility. At the heart of the living spaces, a grand fireplace anchors the flow, guiding the eye and gathering rooms into a seamless continuum. The layout invites conversations to drift from indoor to outdoor and back again, with spaces merging around this warm, sculptural anchor. From Kentucky pink sandstone and cedar exteriors to warm interior touches—wood floors, custom concrete sinks, maple doors and trim, and a well-organized mudroom and laundry area—every surface speaks to craft and longevity. On the main level the Center Room is designed for living and entertaining. It is enriched by commissioned art, beautiful Kentucky sandstone fireplace and huge windows that look out over the Middletown Valley. A wrap around deck allows transition from the indoors to out, with just a few footsteps. A dedicated library with custom maple shelving creates a quiet, sunlit mezzanine of ideas—is a perfect retreat for reading, group study, or inspiration. The stunning kitchen was designed in collaboration with local architect, Clyde Burger. The two 12’ long walnut islands and all the kitchen cabinetry is hand-built Mennonite woodwork. The work surfaces are polished concrete, and the built-in appliances are professional grade. A kitchen lounge houses built-in cabinetry and encourages family and social time as meals are prepared and enjoyed. An 18-foot NanaWall opens to dissolve the boundary between inside and outdoor. The main level laundry has clean lines, beautiful carpentry, wonderful hand built floating shelves, custom concrete surfaces and sink as well as a wet floor and direct access to the decks and yard. The mudroom and powder room also feature custom cabinetry and specially designed features, such as the concrete sink and the floating concrete benches. The primary suite is un-filled, architectural artistry with an imported floor, two walk-in closets (one cedar-lined), and a bath featuring terrazzo floors and a standout view. Two en-suite bedrooms, renovated December 2025, have wood floors with custom Navajo-inspired wood inlays. Commissioned furnishings fill of the rooms and both enjoy nature views. The lower-level spaces are also remarkable. The second grand room has a vibrant MCM fireplace and is ideal for family activities, mediation or intimate gatherings. The windows showcase the valley view, and the doors open directly to the saltwater pool. Two private rooms are ready to use as bedrooms or office spaces. The full bathroom also has a custom concrete vanity and floor and warm cork tiling. This wing of the lower-level embraces angles and has built floating shelves in the lower library. Additionally, this level offers a bright, versatile studio providing space for creativity of all types—art, writing, design, or restorative projects— to inspire and nurture imagination. The exterior grounds are a living landscape. The 5-acre parcel unfolds as a natural paradise with park-like landscaping and hundreds of flowering trees seen from every window. The long drive lined with light poles and the parking area edged by planters sets a welcoming tone as you approach the home. A multi-level Brazilian hardwood deck overlooks a heated saltwater pool; a detached barn houses a traditional Scandinavian sauna and a lounge for year-round wellness. The homes systems are wellness-oriented including geothermal HVAC, a brand-new roof with a 50-year warranty, a multi-stage water softening system.
