Welcome to your Mid-Modern dream home nestled in a prime location North of Herndon off Van Ness Extension! Original owner sale, home belonged to prominent Fresno-area Doctor and his large family. Many wine tasting parties were had. Story was featured years ago in the Fresno Bee, and the unique backyard pool was featured in SUNSET MAGAZINE. LOCATION is superb! This N/S facing multi-level iconic Swiss Chalet features 4 bedrooms (two of which are double bedrooms to create a 6 bedroom home if needed), formal living and family rooms each with fireplaces, formal dining room, wet bar, expansive game room & phenominal Master Suite. As you approach, you'll be greeted by beautifully pruned mature evergreens cascading over an explosion of blossoms with a fountain & streetlight. The leaded door entry leads to an expansive formal living room w/ rock fireplace & full wall of windows captivating the majestic trees with gated Lake Van Ness as a backdrop. Vaulted beamed ceilings extend into the formal dining room which has sliding door access to patio. Vinyl plank floors grace the classic kitchen w/ center island, double ovens, tile counters & a 12'x17' breakfast/sunroom with beamed ceiling & stunning views of the colorful/private backyard w/ new 7' fence, gazebo, 8'x10' Tuff Shed w/wide door & window. The centerpiece of the backyard oasis is a custom designed Olympic size pool (45' (L) x 20'(W) x 10'(D) perfect for hosting poolside gatherings or lounging in this outdoor sanctuary.
