Welcome to 53 Godfrey Rd. West -This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired mid-century jewel box is bathed in light and harmoniously integrated into the landscape. The flat-roof home has a peaked master suite, discreetly hidden side entrance, sleek façade, and multiple points of egress that open to an interior courtyard and lush back yard. A canopy of mature trees forms a dramatic backdrop to this naturalists’ paradise. Inside, you feel like you’re outside, with picture windows blurring the boundaries The interior is traditional and unique, with stately fireplaces, muted slate and gleaming hardwood floors, and structural walls of glass that punctuate welcoming alcoves, an open floorplan in the galley kitchen-family room, and glass atrium dining room/great room. A generous primary suite, 2nd. guest rm/office complete the main level, while the lower-level music/rec-rm is retro-rebellious. The home sits on 1.14 acres of lovingly-tended perennial gardens and enchanting forests, with a terraced in-ground pool, woodland firepit for sunsets, and spacious back deck, all enveloped in the privacy of protected open space, adjacent to Devil’s Den trails and La Chat Town Farm next door.
