Discover a truly special opportunity on coveted Greenwood Avenue-a one-of-a-kind mid-century home set on a beautiful wooded lot with serene, natural views in every direction. Built in 1955, this architecturally striking residence features dramatic rooflines, expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, warm wood detailing, exposed beams, and incredible natural light throughout. Step inside to find inviting spaces with original character intact: terra-cotta style flooring, a sun-filled foyer, open sightlines, and a layout that blends indoor living with the surrounding landscape. Multiple sliding glass doors and picture windows create a seamless connection to the outdoors, offering privacy and a true retreat-like feel. Generously sized bedrooms, thoughtful built-ins, and architectural details add function and charm. The lower level includes additional living space and storage options. Outside, the winding walkways, mature trees, and lush natural contours of the yard offer endless possibilities for gardening, entertaining, or creating your own outdoor oasis. Lovingly lived in and ready for its next chapter-this home is being sold "as-i"s, providing the perfect canvas for restoration, modernization, or a full architectural reimagining. Homes with this kind of personality and potential rarely come available. Bring your vision and unlock the full beauty of this mid-century masterpiece.
