Completely redesigned with a modern aesthetic, this home speaks for itself. The charming original stone exterior of the home starts the surprise at the front door approach. Modern sidelight windows in the foyer offer a look back onto the front garden nook, the first of many views to come. The front living room is open to the functional kitchen and a window niche allows interaction with the living room and dining room along with views onto the center courtyard. In places where a wall would have sufficed, former resident, renowned architect Arthur Andersson, inserted floor to ceiling bookshelves. Custom built-in shelving in the library/study and entertainment rooms maximize useable living spaces. Each bedroom is a private haven; each thoughtfully located to maximize natural light and a glimpse of the outdoors. Original oak flooring, painted and re-utilized, combined with French soap stone countertops give a modern feel to the interior. Countless fine details such as oak beamed block stair steps, custom iron stair railings and finely hewn semi gloss white ship lap walls. Two dormers with glass on three sides allow abundant natural light to highlight the living spaces. Shaded by a gorgeous oak tree, the center courtyard at the heart of the home offers a protected outdoor living space that is accessible from various rooms surrounding it. It is emblematic of the easy to care for style of the home and occupants. Also once lived in by Charles Umlauf, this masterpiece is ready for the next artist at heart to call it home.
