Designed by noted architect Ulrich Franzen, this stunning 1959 Mid-Century Modern home offers extraordinary architectural design situated in a private, beautifully landscaped setting. Franzen graduated from Harvard, worked with I. M. Pei, and went on to establish his own design firm. The house embodies Franzen’s signature ability to bring the outside in through his famous floating barrel ceiling and infinity windows. This truly unique mid-century modern home is a delight to behold. As you enter the foyer, you are welcomed by elegant ceramic tile and a skylight. Straight ahead, you will pass a full bath, leading into the great room with its distinctive half-barrel ceilings and unique gas fireplace. Adjacent to the fireplace is the cozy library, creating a harmonious space surrounded by two gorgeous courtyards perfect for entertaining. The formal dining room is adjacent to the classy and elegant kitchen, featuring cork flooring and top grade appliances. At the rear of the home, you'll discover a den with a wood-burning fireplace, a first-floor laundry area, a well-appointed office, and another full bath. The bedroom wing of the house offers a total of four bedrooms and two additional full baths. The lower level includes a game room and a storage area, with a large crawl space for extra storage and three separate furnaces. A breezeway connects the house to the two-car garage, and a direct gas line serves the exterior gas grill.  The property boasts stunning grounds with beautiful gardens and a circular driveway, completing the allure of this exceptional home. Located on a .7 acre lot in very quiet McClellan Heights and surrounded by mature trees, the property is just south of York near York College and York Hospital, and has five-minute access to Interstate Route 83 and all points of the compass. A perfect residence or retreat, this house affords a unique opportunity to experience serenity, privacy, and exceptional design.
