Seller is asking for final and best offers by Wednesday, 9/2 by noon. Presenting this exquisite, one-of-a-kind mid-century modern home, custom designed by well-known architect Donald Sickler, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a wooded 1.25-acre lot surrounded by lush greenery, creating a peaceful and private setting. Lovingly maintained by the original family, this distinctive architectural home offers five bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, and two levels of thoughtfully designed living space. Oversized floor-to-ceiling windows throughout fill nearly every room with natural light while showcasing views of the beautiful surroundings. A long driveway through the trees sets the tone as you arrive at this private oasis, with an in-ground pool that beckons on a warm summer day. A center courtyard welcomes you before stepping inside to the inviting foyer. The impressive cantilevered living room boasts a soaring vaulted ceiling, rich hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, lighted built-in shelves, and walls of windows that seem to float over the wooded landscape. Hardwood floors continue into the formal dining room, providing an elegant setting for hosting gatherings, with custom fronted hidden storage closets offering added functionality. The eat-in kitchen, with original cabinetry by St. Charles New York, is equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a Viking refrigerator/freezer, double wall ovens, and a JennAir electric cooktop, along with several pantries for added storage. A breakfast nook is ideal for casual meals and provides access to the attached elevated screened gazebo/porch that offers another inviting place to relax or dine while enjoying a 180-degree view of the tranquil surroundings. A laundry room and half bathroom complete this side of the home. Off the foyer, a comfortable den with wooden pocket doors and built-in shelving, including a wet bar, offers a versatile space for lounging, reading, or working from home. The primary bedroom suite is a true retreat, featuring a versatile sitting room with a bright skylight, and a wall of closets to ensure you have plenty of storage space. A dressing room includes two more closets and a vanity, and another skylight fills the en-suite bathroom with natural light, while a walk-in shower and separate soaking tub complete the space. Down the hall are two additional bedrooms sharing an updated hall bathroom with a walk-in shower and a dual-sink vanity. Completing the main level is the fourth bedroom with its own private en-suite bathroom featuring a walk-in tub. A curved staircase in the foyer leads downstairs where the finished lower level significantly expands the living space with a massive recreation room highlighting a wet bar, a second fireplace, and doors leading to the patio and pool outside. An additional full bathroom and mudroom offer convenient access when enjoying a day by the pool. This level also includes a fifth bedroom suite with its own private bathroom, offering flexible accommodations for guests or extended stays. A versatile workshop is ideal for hobbyists and projects, while three large storage rooms provide abundant space to stay organized. Additional highlights include a detached three-car garage and a long driveway with ample parking. With its distinctive architecture, expansive window and skylights, flexible living spaces, and serene wooded setting, this remarkable property offers a rare opportunity to own a truly special home that has been cherished by the same family, known for their global philanthropy to major museums, charities and religious organizations. Recent updates include a new roof, new windows, new ceramic flooring on both levels, fresh paint, and brand new carpet in the primary and fourth bedrooms.
