Property details

About 1201 Garfield St S

Absolutely breathtaking custom-built home designed by architect Willis Schellberg in 1966. Nestled on .5 acres between the two included lots, the property offers both space & true mid-century modern style. Floor-to-ceiling windows span two floors, flooding the gorgeous rough-cut cedar interior with natural light. The expansive living room, large kitchen, & open dining room offer a perfect atmosphere for entertaining. Outdoor living is not lacking with a balcony flowing across the entire front of the home, a covered deck off the dining room, a patio off the lower bedroom, & a large deck down the rock path. Two small cabins are begging to become a cozy yoga/meditation studio or a writers retreat. Youre not going to want to miss this!
