Nestled in a tranquil suburban enclave of Victoria Woods, this single-story mid-century modern gem, designed by the renowned architect Harry Marsh, exudes sophistication and warmth. Upon entering, an open layout unfolds, seamlessly connecting the living spaces. Classic wood elements between the living room and dining room add a touch of timeless elegance. The living room features custom wood detailing and a large brick fireplace wall bathed in natural light streaming through several floor-to-ceiling windows, showcasing the beautiful, lush garden courtyard outside. The dining room, an extension of the same design philosophy, offers a chic space for gatherings. There are French Doors from the dining room leading to a quaint brick patio overlooking the tree-lined streets of the neighborhood. The updated kitchen, a testament to modern convenience, awaits with sleek appliances and a bay window eating nook. This culinary space seamlessly combines form and function, offering a delightful spot for morning coffee or casual meals. The front bedroom features a picture window with views of the front yard and a built-in bookcase. The hallway is lined with ample storage cabinetry. The main bedroom and bathroom are an extension that was added to the home 10 years after the home was built. The owners brought Harry Marsh back to design the added space. It combines simplicity with comfort serving as a nice retreat from the rest of the home. The backyard, an outdoor haven, features multiple patios and pathways enveloped by nature. There is also a BBQ patio with a custom trellis above it providing shade and privacy. The upper garden has an orchard with orange, grapefruit, fig, and pomegranate trees, raised garden beds, and a storage shed. True to the mid-century design, there is a breezeway between the home and the one-car garage. A true example of marrying form and function, this home stands as a testament to the enduring allure of mid-century modern architecture.
