Welcome to this one-of-a-kind contemporary home providing California living at its finest. Originally built by Eichler architect, Herman Weiss for himself and his wife, with inspiration from the famed Edward Larrabee Barnes' Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. Walls of windows, natural shingle siding, skylights, open beam ceilings & radiant heating are all attributes that equate to this Mid-Century Modern architecture and design. The expansive, open layout is filled with natural light, and offers access to the rear & side yards from several sliding glass doors, as well as to the maintenance-free Trex decks off the dining room, backyard, front den, and charming front courtyard. The quiet front courtyard is flanked with new, solid, locking gates for ultimate privacy & security. Original mid-century modern light fixtures adorn the home as the architect originally intended. The front bedroom has an additional loft space for study or peaceful reflection. Additionally, the front two bedrooms, each with their own outside access doors, are adjoined by a hallway & shared bathroom, which can be closed off and completely separate from the main house. This could be the ideal built-in ADU for extra income, or as a private retreat for guests. Don't miss your chance to live in this iconic home!
