A rare opportunity awaits in the coveted Burnham Woods neighborhood! Nestled between Cedar Lake and Lake of the Isles, this mid-century gem designed in 1953 by architect Newton Griffith, a student of Gropius, marries timeless, sophisticated design with all the comforts of 21st-century living. Expansive, open-concept living/dining/kitchen spaces with soaring ceilings and beautiful woodwork are ideal for entertaining. The thoughtfully planned-out kitchen will delight those who love to cook! An upper family room is the perfect spot to enjoy views of Cedar Lake, or build a cozy fire while watching the snow fall outside of the oversized windows. The open, central staircase is a striking design element that connects the various levels of the home and extends up into the gorgeous green tile fireplace. Privacy is easily found in the primary suite: a spacious bedroom and dressing area and refined bath occupy their own level. Two additional bedrooms share a spacious full bathroom and common living area, while a guest suite comprised of two rooms and a 3/4 bath provides a cozy retreat. A screened-in porch, two decks, and patio area offer numerous ways to enjoy the serenity and privacy of the natural setting. Ample storage throughout the home adds to its ease of living. Two-car garage can be accessed from both sides. Recent updates are extensive - see list in supplements - and offer discerning buyers the chance to move into this truly exceptional and architecturally significant property and immediately enjoy all it has to offer.
