For the true midcentury modern enthusiast, this home is a rare architectural offering in the heart of Bohmann Park, Rummer’s most iconic enclave. This stunning residence is a masterclass in post + beam modernism, where structure + simplicity converge in perfect proportion. Beyond the saffron front door, in true Rummer fashion, an open-air atrium greets you. Framed by crisp lines + bathed in natural light, the atrium serves as the spatial heart of the home. Glass-wrapped corners + sliding doors connect interiors with nature, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Inside, floor-to-ceiling glass rises to meet vaulted tongue + groove wood ceilings. Classic Rummer elements abound: radiant-heated concrete floors, post + beam construction, + strategically placed skylights that illuminate a layout marrying function with design. The living + dining rooms are radically oriented toward the backyard, anchored by a central wood-burning fireplace + expansive sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between inside + out. The kitchen blends original spirit with modern functionality: rich teak cabinetry, stainless-steel countertops, an oversized island, + walk-in pantry. An adjacent family room opens directly to the atrium. A hallway of glass leads to 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. The primary suite features a clerestory window, sliding door, walk-in closet, + a sunken Roman bath, an iconic Rummer detail. A versatile 4th bedroom offers an inspiring office space, with a cork-accent wall, custom shelving system, + atrium access. Bathrooms showcase timeless style: honed granite, classic tile, + refined cabinetry. Original details such as burlap closet doors + vintage sconces add nostalgic charm. The backyard oasis is framed by mature landscaping while a minimalist deck invites quiet mornings + vibrant evenings. Rummer homes are celebrated for their architectural purity and harmony with the natural world. For those who see architecture as art, this is a space to fall in love with.
