Step inside this remarkable contemporary home, designed and built in 1972 by its current owner. Every corner tells a story of creativity, vision, and pride, blending the bold lines of contemporary architecture with the warmth of a true family home. Vaulted ceilings, spacious rooms, and unique architectural details showcase the character of an era that celebrated both style and comfort. Step through the gate to discover a hidden garden—with a large Japanese-inspired pond surrounded by lush landscaping. Brick pathways take you through a tranquil setting, with its artful design and natural beauty, creating a sense of calm and escape. Very private & serene, it's a personal Shangri-La tucked away just beyond your own doorstep. Double doors beckon you inside where you will find expansive living spaces that flow effortlessly, filled with natural light from wide windows that invite the outdoors in. A two-story foyer welcomes guests into the formal living room with vaulted ceiling and original parquet flooring plus a double-sided wood burning fireplace that is shared with the bright solarium beyond the French doors. The solarium offers a sun-drenched retreat year-round - perfect for morning coffee, time in the sauna, an indoor garden, or simply soaking up the view. Sliders from the solarium lead to the expansive brick patio, pool and gardens. Back inside, a peaceful and private den is the perfect place to curl up with a good book. The kitchen was updated in 2005 with granite countertops and custom cabinetry. Stainless steel appliances, a laundry room and powder room complete this space. The dining room was meant for entertaining with enough room for even the most expansive dining room table. Upstairs find the primary suite with attached bathroom, a peaceful retreat designed for comfort and connection with nature. With access to a private balcony overlooking the inground pool, it's the perfect spot to enjoy quiet mornings or unwind in the evenings. Don't miss the exterior spiral staircase for easy access to the yard! Two additional spacious bedrooms complete this level with hardwood floors and great closet space. A second full bath serves this area of the home, blending function with style to meet every day needs with ease. Beyond the main living areas, an additional 2,000 square feet of flexible space offers endless possibilities. Once used for the owner's graphic design business, this stunning two-story conservatory is custom designed around a dramatic red oak center hub, surrounded by brick walls, exposed beams and intricate brick flooring. Floor-to-ceiling windows on both levels fill the space with natural light, creating a breathtaking environment that's equal parts creative and serene. A Vermont cast iron stove adds extra warmth to the area as well as sets the mood on snowy winter days. Behind this space are three additional rooms including a kitchenette and a full bathroom, ready to be reimagined as a studio space, a guest suite, multi-generational use or expanded living space. Outdoors, a heated, inground pool set in a brick patio creates the ultimate gathering spot for summer fun, surrounded by space for entertaining and relaxation. Beyond the pool is a private lanai with planters, perfect for a new hot tub. An arbor on the far side of the pool is wonderful for dining outdoors and there is still plenty of garden and open space to play. And when the sun goes down, the party continues in the basement's original disco - a one-of-a-kind feature that keeps the vibrant spirit of the 70s alive. Complete with dance floor, bar, professional sound and light system, the party never needs to end!
