The lot is extra wide at 105 by 125 deep " some lots here are 90 wide including waterfront lots. The house was built in 1953 as a brick mid-century modern home and renovated from 2016 - 2020. You can still find photos on the original house before renovation on line and some of photos in this listing. It utilizes the solid construction of the '50's to bring it more up to date. Some of the major changes were the stucco finish over the brick with added insulation and the opening up of the 29 x 30 great room (incl. kitchen / living room areas) with a 14 high ceiling. This massive area opens up to the a large covered 15 x 30 back porch area. This area is very private and great for entertaining. The backyard has plenty of room for a lap pool. There are tile floors throughout the home for easy care and endurance. The three bedrooms are all also well sized, especially the master bedroom and there are three full baths. There is an office /study off the great room with a large closet across from it that could make a fourth bedroom - ideal for in-law-suite There is also a door to the outside near this bedroom making it ideal for maid quarters. The kitchen was recently updated and features handmade tiles from a famous local ceramic artist. All the windows were replaced with double pane glass. The heating and cooling are done by numerous chillers that provide temperate control throughout the house. This system works off of heat pump systems without the air-handlers and duct work.
