1959 Forest Enclave / This mid-century home on a spacious 1.15-acre w lot has undergone a recent, designer-led remodel. Think luxe, natural, and handmade materials for a Euro-inspired look, accented by pops of pattern in the bathrooms, due to tile choices from Cle Tile. Completed by Twyne Design, this is design informed by a global spirit – a serene, curated backdrop ready for your own collections and travel mementos, and a soothing place to return thanks to its location.Mature forest surrounds manicured gardens, culminating in a rear courtyard with a koi pond. The natural setting also inspired the remodel, as large picture windows frame forest views, and material choices, like steel, white oak, and handmade Cle´tile, underpin connection to nature. Select midcentury characteristics remain, while the roof, mechanical systems, and layout were all updated for modern living. Now, vaulted ceilings cap the main living areas, with living, dining, and kitchen all flowing together and flooded with light via skylights and large sliding glass doors to the courtyard’s dining patio, the latter perfect for entertaining, or a quiet night by the pond. A soaring steel-clad fireplace defines living from dining, with its serve bar set against Lulu & Georgia wallpaper. The kitchen has handmade terracotta tile from Italy on the backsplash, and Belgian reproduction tile covering the floor and fireplace. Top-of-the line appliances, rift-cut white oak cabinets with Rejuvenation hardware, and custom Caesarstone countertops are an excellent gourmet set-up for cooks. Three bedrooms include a dedicated primary suite, as well as a second suite with its own entry, making it an ideal flex space for guest quarters, ADU, or office. Down the custom steel staircase is a second family room with fireplace, utility spaces, and modern bathroom. Close to Nike, Intel, Bethany shopping, and excellent schools, this home is a serene, modern enclave with potential, as the lot may be dividable.
