A nice example of mid-century modern, with a wall of rhododendrons providing a respite from the downtown views out front. Enter into the living room, with double-sided fireplace defining the dining area, open to the kitchen in back. Two bedrooms...
including the master suite are in back of the home, while upstairs are large bonus rooms which could be completed as a sumptuous master suite. The lower level has laundry, a bonus den, lots of storage and three additional bonus rooms.
