Property Description
This mid century modern house is set on a magnificent 2.23 acre corner lot in the highly desirable neighborhood of West Farm. Built in 1960 under the direction of Wilmington architects Dollar, Bonner and Blake, one might think that Frank Lloyd Wright had directed the concept himself. Meticulously updated to honor its past and function seamlessly for an active family, the house has an open flow, with windows giving every room an connection to the outdoors. Natural minerals-stone, wood, water-have been carefully situated to link one room to the next. A completely enlarged and renovated chef's kitchen fits into the house perfectly because of its organized and subtle detailing. Two gas fireplaces create additional ambiance, including the dual sided custom open unit serving both the morning room and the huge family room/study area. The back of the house opens to a screened porch which echos its modern tone, and overlooks the newly expanded slate patio, complete with koi pond and low stone walls that follow the linear nature of the house. Beyond the beautiful and peaceful grounds boasting mature trees and landscaping, you will find a custom built garden shed, tree house, and enclosed vegetable garden.Systems have all been updated through years of renovation giving what seems to the owners as carefree living, including endless hot water from the home's combination tankless water heater plus 60 gallon water tank. Conveniently located in close proximity to area schools and within walking distance to Winterthur, the Delaware Museum of Natural History, Valley Garden Park, Twin Lakes Brewery, and all Greenville area shops. This unexpected design is a perfect execution of unique American style and is an inviting home which links the outside to the inside, benefiting everyone who lives there or visits.
