Magical Mid-Mod in Paramount Heights with sweeping mountain views. Notice the rare, exterior Ambassador brick and the copper-plated starburst doorknob, located in the center of the bright green front door.
The upper floor of the home has been remodeled with an open-plan design, detailed to honor the sensibility of the original architecture, while integrating modern materials & sweeping sight lines. The floors throughout the main level are clad in warm 4 inch white oak featuring high-contrast grain details.
The living/dining room provides a mountain view facing due west through oversized windows. A massive fireplace surround includes a remote-controlled gas fireplace insert. Clad in Lyons bacon-stripe sandstone, it features a ship-curve terrazzo hearth, whose shape is duplicated on the kitchen island countertop.
The kitchen is fully remodeled with rift-cut oak cabinets & stainless pulls, reminiscent of the styles popular in 1956. It features layered lighting for bright for tasks or soft for entertaining. The kitchen was designed without upper cabinets to provide a sense of openness, without sacrificing storage space.
The large main bedroom enjoys south & west natural light, spacious closets, a built-in dresser, & radiant heat. The attached bathroom has built-in cabinets & a makeup vanity.
A gorgeous west-facing sunroom has stunning mountain views and connects to an outside deck that can accommodate a hot tub. A second bedroom/den, two linen closets, a powder room & foyer complete the upper floor.
Downstairs, the walk-out basement, includes a complete kitchen, two bedrooms, a bath with double sinks, spacious family room with fireplace, & large laundry room/pantry. All with fantastic light & mountain views, perfect for multi-generational living. Outside is a covered patio is a hot tub & a fireplace/grill.
The large corner lot includes copper powder-coated, raised-bed planters, enclosed under-deck storage for lawn & garden tools and mature trees.
