Property Description
Experience timeless design and modern refinement in this one-of-a-kind mid-century modern estate, set on an expansive 1.3-acre corner lot in Rosewood Heights. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this stunning residence offers over 3,000 square feet of finished living space, blending architectural character with today’s most desirable upgrades. From the moment you arrive, the home’s beautifully landscaped grounds and partially fenced yard set the tone for privacy and elegance. Inside, you’ll find a versatile and spacious layout featuring three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and multiple living areas including a formal living room, inviting family room, and a recreation space designed for entertaining. The private primary suite occupies its own level, creating a true retreat. The completely renovated primary bathroom (April 2026) showcases modern luxury, complemented by new carpet in the primary bedroom. The kitchen has been refreshed with a stylish new backsplash (2026), updated fixtures and lighting (2025), and features high-end conveniences including a wine refrigerator, trash compactor, and brand-new dishwasher (2026). Additional recent updates provide peace of mind and elevated comfort, including a new HVAC system (2024), hot water heater (2021), renovated fireplace (2025), updated lower-level bath and laundry flooring, and a roof installed in 2018. Outdoor enhancements include an extended deck and fencing, both completed in 2018. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will appreciate the attached two-car garage along with an impressive 35x30 detached garage featuring drive-through doors—perfect for additional vehicles, storage, or workshop space. Located within the Roxana School District and offering a dedicated office space for today’s flexible lifestyle needs, this impeccably cared-for home is truly a rare find—where mid-century character meets modern luxury in a serene, spacious setting.
