Bright and inviting, this classic home showcases all the hallmarks of midcentury modern design, enhanced by a thoughtfully designed second-story addition. Spanning nearly 3,000 square feet, the light-filled floorplan offers expansive living and family rooms, a well-appointed kitchen, a dining room, three cozy fireplaces, and numerous glass doors that create effortless indoor/outdoor living. Five comfortable bedrooms include two luxurious primary suites, one of which occupies the entire second floor for exceptional privacy. The peaceful backyard is a true retreat with generous patio space, a hot tub, and lush mature landscaping that creates a private, tranquil setting.
