Property Description

This house, designed by Bob von Gerbig, and built in 1954, has become one of a kind, as no other house in the community has retained its original details and character with such dedication; including the complementary additions and changes made over time in keeping with the architect's original design intent. The primary focus of the house is its connection to nature, from expansive views of the distant landscapes and horizons of Erdenheim Farm, to the intimate private gardens that feel like they come into the house. Black Angus cattle dot the hillside, and clouds cast their shadows across a layered landscape, like a pastoral painting, always in motion and full of interest: fox, gophers, hawks, herons, deer and birds of all varieties become actors on a giant stage for your private viewing. The view from your living room sofa is serene, bucolic, and permanently preserved, while at the same time, everchanging, dramatic, and sublime. The property's site is quite remarkable. In the past two years much renovation has been done. The house is in remarkable condition and has gone through dramatic changes, since the present owners purchased. These are the homeowners from whom everyone would want to purchase. Highly-skilled: one is an architect; the other an interior designer; with in depth knowledge of built space, an eye for detail, and exceptionally good taste, the next owner will benefit from all their professional skills. Since their purchase the owners have replaced the roof, painted the exterior, added new privacy fencing, cultivated new gardens, relined the chimney, replaced exterior doors, refinished hardwood floors, replaced some windows, installed new electrical, installed cork flooring, designed custom draperies, put in Phillip Jeffries grass cloth wallcovering, added a new heat pump system to the annex, gutted and renovated two small bathrooms into one sybaritic spa-like bath with walk-in shower, new interior windows, heated floors, and heated towel bars. Ask your agent to share the February, 1954 article in "House & Home" which tells the story of the architect and this smartly designed house. Situated in a private, tranquil neighborhood connected by a loop road with no through traffic, you'll meet the friendliest of people who once they move here, never leave.
