Built in 1960 as part of the original Ranch Club development, this delightful mid-century home is by renowned local architect Hugh Kaptur who has hand-signed a wall in a closet testifying to its provenance. Located on a corner lot with fantastic views of the pool and magnificent mountains beyond, this home has been meticulously restored by the current owners. If you are looking for a home that is not stripped of its soul and over renovated then this rare offering is for you. The home still presents with its original kitchen and bathroom cabinets, but these have been completely reconstructed. It is a Time Machine that will take you back to another era yet lives robustly for today. All electrical and plumbing have been recently upgraded. The original stainless Wedgwood-Holly oven has been restored to perfection. The original kitchen and bathroom tiles in colors of pale green, pale yellow, and pink, so reminiscent of architect Albert Frey's palette, add a soothing and comfortable feeling to the interior. The floors throughout are classic linoleum tiles in a confetti pattern which are the perfect finishing touch. The exterior features the original wood-carved address numbers as well as four beams carved to evoke GM car tail fins which extend beyond the garage. All these details make this a very special home; almost like a model home from 1960 when it was all just starting out. Featured on many Modernism Week home tours and published in various magazines and coffee table books. Come live the mid-century dream in the most authentic way possible.
