Welcome to this mid-century gem nestled in the desirable Highlands neighborhood near Joe Creason Park. Discover a home that has been cherished over the years but never exposed to the market. This well-designed property offers endless potential to make it your own. The home features 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, offering ample space for comfortable living. Inspired by the iconic architectural style of Frank Lloyd Wright, and designed by the architect owner, this house reflects Wright's distinctive design philosophy, combining functionality, harmony with nature, and attention to detail. As you step inside, you will be greeted by an open floor plan that seamlessly merges interior and exterior spaces, allowing natural light to flood into the space. The craftsmanship throughout the house is evident, with attention to detail evident in every corner. From the vaulted ceilings to the carefully curated light fixtures, every aspect has been thoughtfully chosen to create a cohesive living experience. The kitchen, family room and dining room are all connected in an open floor plan, making entertaining a breeze. The dining room also has a private balcony, overlooking the wooded backyard. The centerpiece of this home is the spacious living area, adorned with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the wooded views and provide a seamless transition from indoors to outdoors. The first floor primary suite is a retreat with private access to a balcony. The en-suite bathroom and large walk-in closet finish this space. Step outside onto the private deck, the perfect spot for unwinding after a long day. Three other bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the first floor. The walkout finished basement is an added bonus, giving you extra living space that can be utilized as an in-law suite, a home office, or even a personal gym - the possibilities are endless. This lovingly maintained home showcases the timeless appeal of mid-century architecture, blending seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Located in a prime location near Joe Creason Park, you will have convenient access to outdoor activities, hiking trails, and a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. The brand new roof ensures worry-free maintenance going forward, and the air conditioning and water heater (each just 3 years old), provide peace of mind for years to come. Don't miss the opportunity to make this extraordinary home your own. Schedule a showing today and experience the charm of this mid-century marvel in the heart of the Highlands.
