A decade ago, this rare Laurelhurst flat-roofed “mid-century modern” was a neglected short-sale with a large leak in the roof. My buyers (now sellers) scooped it up with resolve to slowly restore it to its initial integrity, while tapping previously unmet potential and making the perfect low-maintenance pied-a-terre style home for themselves.
With foresight and taste, they gingerly reworked every room to meet its full possible potential while maintaining the original flow and mid-mod style. From reorganized bathrooms with radiant floor heat, to a second en-suite bedroom with egress in the basement, to a home media area with fun inset wall lighting and wet bar, this home was going to give “more”.
And it does. Now, in 2022, it is an easy-to-own minimalist’s modern dream home with stylish, well-considered amenities. They have listed it for SALE. Features are VAST and they include:
Main Floor (1238 sq ft, 2012 remodel): new commercial membrane roofing system and insulation, new dual fuel heat pump, new Milgard double pane insulated aluminum windows, reconfiguration and remodel of bathrooms, new commercial grade cork flooring throughout main floor except for tile bathrooms, solid core interior doors, custom cherry/cherry veneer cabinetry and woodwork, Caesarstone quartz countertops in kitchen and bathrooms.
