Property Description
Immerse Yourself in Nature and Natural Light! This Rountree hidden gem holds a significant place in history, originally crafted by Architect Fred Shellanberger as a personal haven for his family's move from San Francisco to Springfield. Tucked away behind automatic gates, the home exudes privacy, with a unique perpendicular positioning to the street. Embodying the essence of midcentury modern design, the property boasts walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, sleek lines, and organic materials throughout. It is rare to find one level living and a 3-car garage ( Steel beam construction!). This structure has a finished bonus room which adds practicality and comfort to the space. Inside, the sustainable floor plan features open, flowing living areas, built-in storage, and a stunning hallway leading to 3 of the 4 bedrooms. Thoughtful upgrades have been made over the years, adding a TPO roof, installing glass garage doors, and updating gas lines, enhancing the home's functionality. Former improvements include granite countertops, stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, and chic plantation shutters. This seller's meticulous restoration efforts extend to the exterior fencing, fresh paint inside and out, revitalized concrete floors, and new carpeting in most bedrooms, and thoughtful lighting choices. More guttering was added as well as a new hot water heater and adding a gas instead of electric stove. Collaborating with Mashino's, a modern gas insert and was added to complement the home's aesthetic. Outside, the lush landscape, originally designed by a San Francisco landscape architecture firm sets a picturesque backdrop. The trees wewre recently mainted by All About Trees. A delightful screened summer house with a retro wood burner completes this idyllic retreat!
