The relationship between nature and home life is artfully intertwined at this incredible Mid-Century Modern gem with sweeping mountainside views. Perched high above a brook on a 3.2-acre parcel surrounded by over 2,000 acres of accessible preserved parklands, the huge deck, a flagstone patio and an in-ground pool take full advantage of the dramatic setting. Even from the living room, you’re apt to see Bald Eagles, Great Horned Owls, and Great Blue Heron, among other rare species, through floor-to-ceiling glass. The house was designed in 1954 by celebrated modernist architect Victor Bohm, A.I.A. of the Bauhaus movement, and then treasured by the same family ever since. As the patriarch owned a lumber company and construction supply business, only the highest quality materials were used inside and out, including solid mahogany and walnut paneling, redwood ceilings and cedar siding. Entertaining was also clearly a priority with an open-plan dining room and a large family room with a corner bar and a Scandinavian-style fireplace. The kitchen is generous for the period with a vast center island surrounded by WoodMode cherry cabinetry. Gleaming structural glass walls, a teak soaking tub and colorful ceramic tile are in pristine condition in the boldly styled vintage bathrooms. In addition to the bedrooms, a study partitioned by a custom glass cabinet opens to the outdoors. Wake up every morning to fresh breezes and fantastic views or escape from the city on weekends.
