A bright shining example of Modernist Mid-Century architecture right here in the Midwest, this home was designed by Leo C. Peiffer Associates for his own family and lovingly maintained by the current homeowner since 2002. Thoughtfully designed, distinctive, even inspired, are all appropriate descriptors. Situated on a 1.26 acre lot at the end of a cul-de-sac street surrounded by woods, this rare home is a system of interlinked cubic volumes with vast expanses of windows that create the feeling of floating amongst the heights of the forest. Extensive love, care, and financial investment have been lavished upon this home with a kick-off of a $133,000 investment in 2013 and a total investment of $279,000 that spans through to the present. Improvements include new floor-to-ceiling, commercial-grade windows on the main level (2013); new garage roof (2020); new house roof with added pitch and insulation (2025); new exterior Cedar platform entry walk (2026); limestone hardscape improvements (2026); new Trane furnace blower motor (2026); new Trane a/c (2021); new Bosch dishwasher (2025); new Samsung washer and dryer (2020); new fenced-in courtyard garden (2014-2015); Native tree restoration that includes Sycamore, Oaks, Cedar and Birch (2020); interior painting (2023); and EZ Breeze custom windows in the screened porch (2024). The seamless flow of the layout provides a fluid, connected feeling to the entirety of this home, which is packed with original features like jib doors, backlit cabinetry and shelving, Japanese sliding screens, robust sliding glass doors, Parquet flooring, exposed brick, and so much more. This is a truly special home! Come see for yourself while you still can!
