Home Details

A fusion of exceptional design and midcentury charm, this Southside architectural charm awaits you. Built by Community Builders during the 1950s, this home boasts clean lines, modern amenities, and expansive windows. The prairie-style roof pitch exudes a sophisticated yet timeless appearance. The open-concept is seamless in its approach, for entertaining or evenings with the family; integrating a free-flowing design that will leave you breathless. Every aspect of this home has been meticulously renovated, infused with a contemporary ascetic. Natural light floods from every window, creating a vibrant palette of colors that illuminate a relaxing space, from the fireplace nook, to the expansive kitchen with a wrap-around island, waterfall countertops, and custom cabinets, and vaulted living area; this is the heart of the home. Adjacent to the living area is an enclosed three-season room and access to a private patio. The living quarters consist of a versatile flex space that can be utilized as either an office or bedroom, with sliders to the patio; a large guest room, complete with built-ins, and access to a guest bath; and a primary suite featuring beautiful custom-built-in cabinets, tiled ensuite, and a walk-in closet. Through the garage, you’ll find an additional office space, perfect for a home business or crafting. A separate door opens to the patio. Outside is a secluded yard, with its raised gardens, landscaping, and privacy fence.
