A true 1956 Mid-Century Modern, thoughtfully updated for 2026 while preserving the character and architectural integrity that make this home special. Set on .66 acres, the property welcomes you through a charming stone wall entry and beautifully landscaped grounds featuring eight species of smoke trees and a chaste tree. Inside, the original character takes center stage with the limestone fireplace-never painted and beautifully preserved, serving as the focal point of the home. The updated hickory kitchen blends warmth and function with a new gas range, microwave, glass backsplash and lighting, while maintaining the spirit of the era. Both bathrooms were updated in 2022, and new hardwood flooring was added that same year. The thoughtful 2026 updates continue with new windows, exterior doors, interior doors and light fixtures, carefully selected to complement this one-of-a-kind home rather than compromise its MCM character. And wait until you see the laundry room/pantry, an unexpected, exceptionally useful space that adds to the home's appeal. Outside, the grounds are just as distinctive, highlighted by a 33-foot Aermotor windmill. Significant investment has gone into the landscaping, creating a mature and inviting setting rarely found with a home like this. The huge 25' x 11.5' patio has a sensational view of the FRG ski jump. Additional improvements include a six-stage drinking water filtration system (2021) and a 2014 electrical upgrade, including wiring, breaker box and GFCI outlets. Finishing the basement will double the living space. This is more than an updated home-it is a genuine piece of Mid-Century Modern architecture that has been carefully brought forward without losing its soul.
