Driving through Broadmoor, an enclave of 50's ranch homes on large level lots in Raleigh Hills, you find this true mid-century Bauman ranch with a twist, making it a mysterious treasure. This residence is reminiscent of a home where the likes of Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra could have hung out in the 50's. This swanky single-level is a neighborhood icon. Step inside and you are greeted with walls of windows flanking the back looking out to the yard. The 2,500 square feet, embrace a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living, with its layout wrapping around a central swimming pool. The property includes three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, on the south wing, kitchen and family room on the north wing connected by the main living space that perfectly accommodates both privacy and entertainment.The 2023 striking metal shingle roof atop a painted black modern exterior, creates a dramatic contrast with the lush, professionally landscaped greenery of its sprawling one-third acre corner lot. Additional pluses include a hot tub, a spacious garden area on the south side, and a short stroll to the Raleigh Hills hub! Every inch of this property offers a nod to its original era. The low-profile architecture maintains the neighborhood's aesthetic while standing out with its unique cool charm.
