*** UNDER CONTRACT -- BACKUP OFFERS ACCEPTED *** Get away from it all! Yet this secluded, custom, mid-century modern retreat on over 2 acres of wooded land is a mere 2 miles from shopping, restaurants, hiking trails, and much more. This one-family home was designed and built by the late Roy Craven, artist, professor, and Director of the University Gallery, and his wife Lorna. The home’s many, large windows let in abundant light and lovely views of nature and wildlife. The dining area opens to the living room with vaulted ceiling and vintage fireplace, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and interior laundry. The large kitchen features a breakfast or family area. A spacious, bright art studio off the living room has multiple sliding glass doors to showcase the views, and a small separate space with a sink, previously used as a darkroom. This could remain an art studio, or use as a home office, craft space, play room, yoga studio, or bring your own creative ideas. New roof in 2011/2012, and recently painted. Home needs updating, which is reflected in the price.
