for $285,000 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. This 1,710 square foot home was built in 1965 on a lot size of 0.34.
A true architectural standout, this custom-built mid-century contemporary offers distinctive design, exceptional quality, and a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout. Set on a mature, tree-lined lot, the exterior features a striking combination of brick and vertical wood siding, clean rooflines, and dramatic angles that create memorable curb appeal. Inside, a spacious slate foyer opens to an impressive vaulted great room and dining area highlighted by full brick walls, exposed beams, and an abundance of natural light from trapezoid and clerestory Pella windows. The floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchors the space, giving it both character and comfort while maintaining an open, airy feel ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features custom Miller cabinetry, a center work island, breakfast bar, stainless oven and range, and a unique indoor stainless barbecue grill, along with pass-through cabinetry that adds both function and style. The generous primary suite offers a walk-in closet and private bath with built-in cabinetry, while additional bedrooms include custom built-ins and shelving that enhance both charm and usability. Outdoor living is just as impressive with paver patios, a large screened porch, and cedar privacy fencing, creating multiple spaces to relax or entertain. With its blend of timeless materials, custom craftsmanship, and one-of-a-kind design, this home is a rare opportunity for buyers who appreciate architecture and quality.
