Description
There are homes… and then there are iconic estates that tell a story. Set on 1.71 lush, park-like acres in the heart of town, surrounded by historic residences, this 5,080 square foot is an architectural treasure. Built in 1962 with intention & permanence, it stands as a testament to craftsmanship, artistry, & pride of ownership. From the moment you enter, you feel it. Imported lava rock from Hawaii, personally selected by the original owners, anchors the dramatic fireplace and graces portions of the formal living & dining rooms, creating a warmth and texture. Vaulted ceilings with exposed truss beams stretch across the family & breakfast rooms, while walls of windows, patio doors, & custom built-ins fill the home with light, depth, & character. The recently renovated chef’s kitchen blends modern luxury with the home’s historic soul, featuring double ovens, pot filler, wine refrigerator, granite surfaces, custom cabinetry, & striking designer lighting. Multiple living spaces offer flexibility for gatherings large or small. A hidden office tucked discreetly behind a door adds charm & practicality. Some rooms remain delightfully preserved—allowing the next owner the choice to honor the home’s legacy or layer in their own vision over time. Outside... even more extraordinary. An electric-gated drive leads to the three-car garage. Mature trees canopy the grounds. Meticulously maintained landscaping surrounds an exquisite pool framed by architectural stonework. The setting feels like a private retreat. DaVinci lifetime roof tiles crown the home. The structure itself is remarkably solid & quiet—a true testament to how homes were once built. This is not a cookie-cutter property or a trend-driven remodel. It is a residence with presence. This home offers a rare opportunity to own something truly unique, where history, artistry, & space converge in a way that feels both grand & deeply personal. You will not find another like it.
