About This Home

There is something special about the way homes were built in this era—with an emphasis on craftsmanship, quality materials, and details meant to last. This beautifully maintained mid-century modern rambler is a wonderful example. From the clinker brick exterior and rich mahogany trim and doors to the original wood cabinetry and two wood-burning fireplaces, this home retains the warmth, character, and craftsmanship that make mid-century homes so appealing. These are not simply decorative details—they reflect a time when natural materials and thoughtful construction were built into the home from the beginning. The home has also been cared for and thoughtfully updated, including a new roof and newer furnace and heat pump, while preserving the architectural character that makes it distinctive. The practical features are just as appealing: a fenced backyard, an oversized two-car garage, and a full unfinished basement with tremendous potential for additional living space. The basement is ready to be transformed into a family room, home office, recreation space, bedrooms, or whatever best suits your needs. Conveniently located near schools and with easy highway access, this is a home that offers something increasingly difficult to find: genuine character, quality construction, functional updates, and room to create additional value.
