About this property

Every neighborhood has that one home people quietly admire from afar. In Lakewood, this is that home. Set on an extraordinary 14,000+ sq ft corner lot spanning 2 parcels & just moments from the water, this exceptional mid-century unfolds across 3,930 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space, with 5 bedrooms & a layout that evolves effortlessly with every chapter of life. The upper level showcases the home's iconic design, with walls of windows that blur the line between indoors & out while overlooking the lush gardens. Step outside to discover a backyard that feels more like a private park than a residential property, complete with layered landscaping, mature trees, vibrant seasonal gardens, raised beds, expansive lawn space, covered outdoor dining, & a sprawling patio designed for everything from quiet mornings to large gatherings. The versatile lower level adds even more room to spread out, with additional living space, two more bedrooms, & the flexibility to accommodate guests, hobbies, or a home office. Throughout the home, original character pairs effortlessly with warm, inviting spaces that have been lovingly maintained & thoughtfully updated over the years. A 2 car garage with shop, plus carport, provides ample parking, storage, and workspace-a rare convenience that adds to the home's versatility. Homes like this are rarely available. With timeless architecture, extraordinary grounds, & an irreplaceable setting, this is truly one of Lakewood's landmark homes.
