This classic Mid-Century Modern (MCM) home was built in 1955 and has been thoughtfully updated to retain that era's functionality and beauty.
Vaulted beamed ceilings, gallery walls, shoji screens, and tons of natural light are some of the features of this expansive (over 3,000 square feet), three-bedroom, 2.5 bath home. Numerous architectural details, such as stone flooring in the public space and hardwood flooring in the house's private areas, are typical of MCM design. Additionally, each bedroom has a separate entrance to the patio, encouraging a family to venture outdoors.

A great house at a great price! When you enter this home, you step back in time to another era. The house, built in 1950, is the MCM classic ranch home for country living. Warm wood walls and flooring exude a feeling of stability.
The unassuming front facade belies the intricate, multi-level layout of the gardens and pool in the back yard. A wide sliding door opens up the house's interior to the patios and pool in the gently sloping back yard.
The kitchen and the bathrooms have been well preserved and show the era's solid craftsmanship. The metal cabinetry in the kitchen is from the famous Geneva company. Check out this article from Retrorenovation on metal cabinetry by clicking HERE.
