Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Built in 1961, this Mid-Century Modern residence is a true architectural masterpiece, gracefully positioned on one of Midtown's most expansive and coveted lots. Originally designed by acclaimed architect Rozier Dedwylder, the home reflects a visionary approach to design that remains strikingly relevant today. Spanning an impressive 1.8 acres from Averett to Preston and backing to Fleetwood, the property offers a rare sense of scale and privacy seldom found in Midtown. Inside, the home showcases a remarkable preservation of its original architectural integrity. Thoughtfully designed with everyday living in mind, the home unfolds across two distinct wings, each offering its own sense of space and purpose. The right wing is defined by soaring 12-foot ceilings, slate tile floors, parquet floors, and two separate living areas that create both openness and versatility. In the dining room, exquisite hand-painted Gracie wallpaper serves as a striking focal point, complemented by discreetly concealed china cabinets. The kitchen is situated between the dining room and the casual dining area, adding convenience for dinner parties or family gatherings. The left wing offers privacy where the three bedrooms and a dedicated study are set apart from the main living spaces. Throughout the home, intricate millwork lends depth and character to each room, while original hardware reflects a level of craftsmanship rarely found today. One of the home's most distinctive features is its hidden custom built-in cabinetry is thoughtfully integrated throughout, providing exceptional storage without compromising design. The expansive yard, mature landscape, and patios are the perfect place for an outdoor oasis. Meticulously maintained over the years, this residence presents a rare opportunity to own and preserve a home where timeless architecture, functionality, and attention to detail come together in a way that still feels remarkably ahead of its time.
