Overview

This custom-built home lies at the end of a quiet cul-de- sac one block from Riverside elementary school and close to downtown, the shopping center and the high- and middle schools. Built in 1967, this open-concept home is being offered for sale for the first time. Designed by its original owners, a professor, and a designer in the office of Michael Graves, there are many touches that is reminiscent of the Graves? design aesthetic throughout the home. The open concept first floor is bathed in natural light with floor-to-ceiling picture windows overlooking a professionally landscaped backyard with a brick patio and a 150-year-old tree planted by the owners of the cherry orchard that was once on the property. The living room features a two-sided fireplace, with its nods to Michael Graves in its placement and tubular chimneys. The room features a beamed ceiling, transom windows along the length of the room, custom cabinetry, and a large glass slider to a private backyard brick patio. Off of the living room there is a private study area, with its own private patio on the front of the home and a Yamaguchi-like outdoor concrete sculpture best viewed from the living room. On the other side of the fireplace from the living room, there is the breakfast room and kitchen beyond. Details such Miele stainless steel appliances, custom-built cabinets with a pull-out spice rack, granite counter and a butcher block peninsula make this a versatile and pleasant gourmet kitchen open to the rest of the house. The dining room is next to the kitchen and features a custom built-in buffet, perfect for storage and displaying objects of art. The large family room is beyond the dining room and is airy and bright with an oversized skylight and provides even more access to the rear yard. To complete the first floor there is a bonus space which was used as a studio apartment with its own bath, kitchenette, and separate exterior entrance at the front of the house. A small powder room near the front door rounds out the first floor of this unique home. The second floor is home to a large primary bedroom suite with a cathedral ceiling and its own private balcony. The ensuite has a jetted bathtub and granite topped vanity. Design ideas from Michael Graves can be seen in the pendant lighting either side of the bedroom and in the tile design in the upstairs bathrooms. The two bedrooms to the rear of the second floor are off of a large room ?playroom? space, perfect for homework, recreation, or relaxation. There is another full bathroom off of the playroom. There is a large semi-finished basement with a high ceiling that also includes a laundry area and plenty of room for storage in large closets and a small storage area that once served as a small wine cellar. The nicely landscaped, shady yard features large brick patios and extensive outdoor lighting. There is a storage shed for bikes and yard equipment attached to the side of the house. A wonderful, one-of-a-kind home in an extraordinary location looking for a new owners. It is truly a must see!
