MID-CENTURY MODERN-ORIGINAL, ONLY BETTER! A rare blend of authentic mid-century character & thoughtful modern improvements!

The kitchen retains its architectural integrity while offering updated countertops & a new sink. Three bedrooms feature original oak hardwoods & the redesigned primary ensuite delivers a spa-inspired walk-in shower, special-order Delta fixtures and a new vanity. A lower-level office & spacious family room provide valuable flexibility, while customized storage, a laundry chute and utility sink add everyday convenience.
