Description

The home is quintessential MidCentury Modern, custom built in 1962, with exposed beams, a stone fireplace, natural light and deck with views. The open plan layout is spacious and light filled. Kitchen includes period plastic laminate countertops, a wall mounted avocado green dial phone, working original appliances (the LG French Door refrigerator is new). The deck has dimmable lighting and a gas BBQ. Perfect for the sunset martini or glass of wine. I am a retired educator and architect, passionate about nurturing community and creating spaces for cross-age connection and learning. I enjoy hiking, cycling, kayaking, sewing, travel, learning, meaningful conversation and love to be in nature. I've been a nomad, a business owner (commercial architecture), a social entrepreneur, education leader and am now serving on the board of a small locally originated education nonprofit in Tanzania.
