Rarely, does a unique opportunity like this appear in anyone’s lifetime… and here it is in yours! This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Mid-Century home is now ready for your loving restorative hand. Designed by one of Wright’s devotees, Charles Maddox, this singular home was a modern offshoot of the Prairie School of Architecture---with strong horizontal lines, broad overhanging eaves, ribbons of windows, central chimney, wide use of natural materials like stone and wood, and an open floor plan. This 3 BR/2Bath home is over 3500 sq ft and boasts generous common areas designed for elegant entertaining. In fact, the original owners had it designed to host grand parties. Situated on over 1.5 massively treed acres beside Allen Creek, there are two lovely woodland ponds where river otters are reported to play. Step from the circular driveway towards a bold stone wall past the koi pond and lava rocks. A slate Entry Foyer leads to an open floor plan with a huge stone fireplaced Family Room; Breakfast area; large Kitchen with separate wet bar and Venetian plaster ceilings; a huge, octagonal Dining Room with glassed Orchid Room; Living Room/Office; Master Suite with a glassed garden tub, walk-in closet, and raised, creek-side retreat/studio. Two secondary BRs share another garden bathroom. Plus, there’s huge Florida/Billiards/Game Room, an large indoor Laundry and another Office/Hobby Room possibility. Lots of natural wood and indirect lighting. Very livable now but could be something pretty spectacular in your hands.
