The mid-century home has been something of a creative exercise over the years, and as such, it’s been transformed into a paradise that’s equal parts thoughtful and tranquil. Impressive lines, windows, and glass doors abound here, and a double-sided gas fireplace ensures the kitchen and living areas stay connected. Translation: this interior feels open, airy, and entirely fluid.
Complete with new cabinetry, countertops, and appliances…and those glass doors that conveniently lead to the private courtyard.
The bathrooms have also undergone major makeovers, and each is outfitted with stone or river rock. Downstairs, you’ll find another finished living space (with its own fireplace) that’s been wired and perfectly prepped to be the ideal home theater space/private dance studio/guest setup.
A few less-conventional (but nonetheless fabulous) pluses, here: the 300-year-old door–found in India–which connects the living and dining rooms, the reclaimed wood throughout, the entryway’s handmade mosaic, and a photography darkroom.
In the back, you’ll find an outbuilding, designed by the previous owner, with all the necessary framing/wiring/water/sewer work completed. Additionally, there’s a 200 sq. ft. workshop located off the garage with its own entrance.
There’s a chicken coop that could translate beautifully to a green house for those inclined to growth, and the previous owner has already started the process of adding a small soaking pool/hot tub. Win, win.
Also featured prominently in the outdoor space is a stone amphitheater with spiral staircase (reminiscent, we think, of Andy Goldsworthy’s work). With capacity for 40 people, it might be the cherry on top of this fantastically unique property. The home is perfectly primed for artistic collaboration, and the possibilities in making it unequivocally yours are endless.
Monica Dennis is as tenacious as she is accomplished. A self-described “pragmatic in practice, idealist at heart,” we find her to be a breath of fresh perspective at any rate. She is astutely interested in the experiences that make up an individual’s narrative…precisely why she fits into our humble COLLECTIVE so felicitously. A degree in philosophy from the University of Utah lends a honed set of people skills, and MD’s real-estate efforts balance out nicely with a slew of management skills from her past. Add to that a passion for setting folks up with their undeniable match in a home, and you’ve just found your agent.
