Sprawling 1.45-Acre Property with Pool & Expansion Potential! One of the most coveted properties in town, this sprawling 1.45-acre estate is now available for the first time in 50 years! Towering mature trees and a natural walnut grove create a picturesque and private setting, all within close proximity to downtown. The beautifully landscaped grounds feature a gazebo, a patio flowing from the kitchen and dining area, and an in-ground pool with a diving board, newer liner, heater, and brand-new pump. The side yard, once a separate buildable lot, offers future expansion potential, while two additional lots behind the home could nearly double the property's size. Inside, this mid-century modern home is a stunning blend of original character and thoughtful updates. Vaulted and beamed ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, original paneling, black brick, and a striking off-center fireplace create a timeless aesthetic. The main level is an entertainer's dream, with an oversized living room seamlessly connected to the kitchen, dining space, and covered patio. The lower-level family room, built on grade, features a fireplace and full-size patio doors leading to a terrace. With over 2,000 square feet of living space, the home offers three bedrooms, two updated bathrooms, and oak hardwood floors throughout the main living areas. A modernized kitchen and recent upgrades, including a newer roof, furnace, and air conditioner, add to the appeal. Rarely does a property of this size and caliber become available-don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
