This iconic ranch in the quintessential mid century neighborhood of Dover Shores was designed and built by Elwood E. Waller in 1957 and from it’s classic flat gravel roof to the retro style greenery framing the atomic orange doors, you’ll be transported back to retro space-age style. And, at 1,925 square feet, it’s one of the largest ranch homes in the neighborhood! Inside you’ll first notice the open floor plan and terrazzo floors with plenty of natural light coming through the large UV tinted windows. The kitchen was completely remodeled in July of '16 and keeps the style of the home while creating a modern space with it’s Sputnik lighting, glass subway tile backsplash, and quartz countertops. New AC (2016) keeps the home the perfect temperature. A central living room with plenty of gallery style wall space leads to an even larger family room complete with fireplace and iconic mid-century post and beam ceiling. A spacious connecting media room has plenty of custom cabinets and shelving to neatly hold belongings. The open/split floor plan maximizes ease of use, and quality of life. The master bedroom features a second full bath and is on the opposite side of the home. Finally there’s a bonus room (originally built as a bomb shelter!) that is just the right size for a home office. Rear French doors open up onto a spacious tropical themed backyard with 2 large sheds for storage or enclosed workspace. Mature trees on this 10,349 square foot lot bring the shade on even the hottest of days.
