Some homes are renovated; this one was restored. The exposed beams still run the full length of the living and dining room. The corner windows in the breakfast nook still frame the yard the way the architect intended. The transom windows still pull light through almost every room while keeping privacy a priority and the breezeway blocks, a hallmark of Mid-Century Modern design, remain exactly where they belong. What's new is equally considered. The primary suite was built with generous proportions and maximum natural light. The primary bathroom and closet are equally impressive in size and configuration. The kitchen follows the same logic: modern lines, a place for everything, and a walk-in pantry with room to spare. The second primary sits privately at the end of the hall with its own bath. MCM Nelson lamps throughout key areas. The carport is now a proper garage. Outside, the .36-acre lot runs 105 feet wide. Bring your vision to the backyard and make it your dream get away. Room of a pool, cabana, outdoor kitchen and a yard that still has room to breathe -- this lot can hold it all. In a neighborhood of 1950s Mid-Century Modern and ranch-style homes, this one stands out. The Northaven Trail is a short walk. Tollway access without living on top of it. If you collect art, the wall space will not disappoint.
