01About this home

Custom-designed by architect and master craftsman Ed Ware, this exceptional mid-century modern ranch offers timeless design and functional living on a private, wooded cul-de-sac. Featuring 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and a 2+ car garage, this home blends architectural character with thoughtful updates. The spacious eat-in kitchen is equipped with newer appliances, a center island, and sleek granite countertops-perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The great room is a true centerpiece, showcasing new flooring, a striking walnut storage wall, and expansive windows that bring in natural light and serene outdoor views. The primary suite is ideally situated off the main hallway and great room for convenience and privacy. Near the garage entry, you'll find an oversized laundry room, powder room, and abundant storage space. A separate wing includes three bedrooms and a den, connected by two Jack-and-Jill bathrooms featuring beautifully preserved original vintage tile. The fully finished walkout basement expands the living space with a large great room, wet bar, second kitchen, an additional bedroom with ensuite bath, and a substantial bomb shelter-offering both versatility and peace of mind. Additional highlights include a whole-home Generac generator and a setting that perfectly complements the home's architectural charm. This is a rare opportunity to own a distinctive mid-century modern home with space, character, and privacy.
