Description
In 1967, this home was featured in the Parade of Homes to show case what the future family was excited for. Yet, the design of this home started long ago. As we gather around fires, we told stories of our past from one generation to another. Our ancestors would retire after a long day of hunting and gathering to connect with friends or family around a hearth or central place in the home. While Frank Lloyd Wright focused on creating the heart of the home at the hearth - Architect Ron Molen, who built this inspiring home, went further. Ron Molen felt that there needed to be two inviting factors to gather - a hearth and a conversational pit. As he created this space in his home, it has become a timeless signature piece of his properties to allow people to connect with no other distractions. Being surrounded together in the conversational pit, encouraged people to focus on the views and importance of the day. When this property was built, it was the summer of love, and had features that the futuristic family was excited for. Floating staircases, floor to ceiling windows and beams that span throughout, a low sloping roof line that resembles the split window of a Corvette, and the conversation pit was the perfect place to catch up or relax in front of the tube television or warmth of the fire. It was an exciting time of playing Stickball, street hockey, chalk drawn hopscotch on the sidewalk, and gathering was the center of American life. All centered around being present and without technology. With 4 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a split floor-plan, great room, incredible lighting, and exceptional square footage- you can only dream of a property as unique as this. Consider this property as your next place to connect, enjoy the simplicities of conversation, read a book, nap, or just simply gather your thoughts.
