Looking for the unique, non-conventional home with a Mod Vibe that just happens to have multiple parking options and is a Ranch? This home is captivating, just like a classic car. In fact, this home feels very much like the style of Frank Lloyd Wright designs with field stone exterior, oversized windows and the placement on the land that blends the home seamlessly into the surrounding nature. Built in 1960, it was truly ahead of its time with a very open floor plan designed for comfortable living and entertaining; offering sunken conversation and dining area, large living space and a super-sized kitchen all defined by metal accent railings with matching ceiling finish. This neighborhood is located on a single, no outlet, tree lined street. Upon arriving you will find the house is in sync with the surrounding mature landscape. The exterior of this 2 bd, 2.5 bath Retro Ranch has stacked stone, slate porch and detailing accents, large over-sized windows, a warm tone roof, wood garage door (original), curved walkway and a grand double door entry finished in a 3 panel style (original). As the door(s) open you are transported back to the 1960/70's era as this home has barely been touched. The foyer allows you to take in the views; to your Left is the original living room and in Front of you is a single step down to the large gathering area that is setup for hours of before and after dinner conversation in front of the stone detailed fireplace (wood burning) that is flanked by side extended built-ins with planter space perfect for live foliage year round. Within this area, just off the Kitchen is the Formal dining space that overlooks the back yard and distant creek; yes you will have a water view while dining. A quick step up and you are in the amazingly large eat-in Kitchen that has solid wood cabinets, plate display above the cabinet tops, solid surface counters, electric cooking, plate warmer counter insert, hot water on tap at the sink, dishwasher, refrigerator and an oversized sunny window with alcove seating that also overlooks the greenery of the landscape. The 2 bedrooms are nice sized with plenty of closet space. On this level, there is both a full bath and a separate powder room; both have the original vanities, tile and mirrors; for being 60 years old, they look phenomenal. Just off the dining area you will enjoy a wonderful 3 season sunroom finished in slate flooring, large windows and gives access to the back yard. Downstairs the walkout basement has a full bath with retro tiled shower, large walk-in cedar closets, a drop ceiling and a separate systems rooms that holds a prior cooking area from years ago.

Entertaining here was not just for the inside as the exterior has parking for 6-10 cars, a shed for storage, 2 access points to the back yard from the back of home and a quiet, serene tidy yard with beautiful trees and 2 decorative bridges that cross over the creek area.
