Welcome to Melville House designed by Taylor Gates of Gates and Ford Architectural and Planning Associates boasting a most distinctive feature referred to as a "butterfly" roof. The house was originally constructed in 1958 for David Melville by builders Borglum & Meek and was consequently featured on the 1959 Modern House Tour in New Canaan. Melville House closely connects with nature through the use of large expanses of glass, fieldstone walls, cedar beams and other natural materials. The interior floor plan is seamless, forgoing interior walls to allow views of nature to prevail. Most recently home to acclaimed artist and long-time resident Rosamond Berg, this home exemplifies the essence of the Mid-Century Modern movement in it's unusual form and close ties to the landscape. House is being sold AS IS. See LA re: Property Disclosures.
