Acclaimed midcentury modern architect Charles Goodman designed this house, built in 1960, with his signature geometric panels of vertical wood siding, floor-to-ceiling window walls, brick chimney, gently sloping roof and wide eaves. It has been meticulously cared for by the current owners for the last 20 years. This home has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in 2442 square feet. The front door opens into a spacious foyer with a large coat closet. The lower level living space is filled with natural light and includes a family room with a gas fireplace, two bedrooms and a bathroom. A large utility room/laundry offers plenty of space for storage. A gracious staircase in the foyer takes you to the upper level of the house. The living room invites guests in, with its wood-burning fireplace, and tree-top views through floor to ceiling windows. Three of the bedrooms and two of the bathrooms are on this level. The updated kitchen with granite countertops and a sky light, and dining room with a sliding glass door to the patio, offer views to the back garden. 1 or 2 car driveway and plenty of street parking.
