Deemed to be built by the renowned builder, Joseph Eichler, this home stands as a remarkable embodiment of his mid-century modern design. Set on a generous corner lot with an extra-large rear yard, the property is a pristine example of what Eichler called “boldness, change, and optimism through indoor/outdoor living.” The one-level floor plan begins with a front carport that introduces a signature design element of his – slightly vaulted and paneled rooflines.
Preserved original features remain at the heart of the architecture, including a wall of glass that stretches to the ceiling and spans the rear of the home. This authentic element now stands alongside a whole-home designer remodel that elevates the aesthetic with sophisticated, modern flair. All walls have been sheet rocked in place of the original paneling, and crisp white tones enhance the volume and natural light throughout. New engineered white oak floors unify every room, and both the exterior and interior have been newly painted.
The open kitchen is a standout between the living room and dining room, appointed with horizontal wood grain cabinetry, zinc countertops with a rich patina and waterfall edge on the island, and white subway tiles. A wall finished in chalkboard paint adds a creative twist, while a striking Capiz shell chandelier anchors the open dining space. Stylish lighting, remodeled baths, and thoughtfully curated finishes contribute to the home’s fresh, designer appeal.
Tucked into a highly desirable neighborhood known for its strong sense of community, this home is located near parks, tech centers, and commuter routes. Informal block gatherings and holiday traditions bring neighbors together in a setting that reflects the very spirit of mid-century living – welcoming, open, and connected. This is a truly special opportunity to own an iconic home, beautifully reimagined for today.
