MAD ABOUT MID-CENTURY MODERN ARCHITECTURE? Be sure to see this two-owner, custom-built, well-maintained specimen. Perched atop a serene, wooded hillside, the home was designed with walls of windows to take in the natural setting. Oak floors and a woodburning stone fireplace give an organic feel to the inviting living room. Ideal for entertaining, the living room flows to the dining room, kitchen and glassed-in sunporch. Crisp and clean white cabinetry brings a sense of lightness to the contemporary eat-in kitchen. The intimate den is an architectural tour-de-force with vaulted ceilings, walls of bookshelves and a spectacular stone fireplace. The upper-level features four bedrooms and full bath; the spacious master bedroom includes a private bath and walk-in cedar lined closet. The lower-level family room is a great place to relax and watch tv; a handy half bath is nearby. There’s fun to be had in the basement rec room and adjacent game room. Storage abounds in the basement laundry area and mechanical room. From the backyard patio, all you’ll hear are the birds! Additional lot tax ID#: 02-1-02427-000 Notes: underground propane tank is inspected every 3 years (cost $49.00~Ferrellgas); driveway is on property, neighbor to the north has an ingress/egress easement, maintenance costs are shared equally.
