Here’s a treat for the mid-century lovers among us. She’s a beauty!

1952 mid-century prairie-style ranch by noted local architect John Boardman on 3+ private acres. Set privately among mature trees on over three acres within the Alma Schrader school district, now available for the first time in many years. Reflecting classic mid-century principles with original architectural details preserved throughout. Spanning 4,500+ sq ft, the single-level home includes four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two dining areas, two sitting rooms and a wet bar. Stone surfaces extend from exterior to interior, while terrazzo floors and wood carsiding ceilings run throughout the living areas. Large windows, some wall-spanning, others clerestory, flood the home with natural light and frame views of the wooded property. Bringing the outdoors in, the formal dining room features a 19ft long raised indoor garden. Original built-ins include three built-in sofas, extensive custom cabinetry and storage closets, and a dedicated wine storage cabinet. Two gas fireplaces anchor the main living spaces, and mini-split systems provide heating and cooling to primary areas. Restoration efforts have reintroduced previously concealed windows, preserving the home’s architectural intent while leaving opportunities for thoughtful continuation. Outdoors, the property features an original concrete swimming pool, fenced in backyard and an outbuilding with attached lean-to for mower and equipment storage. Approximately 1/4 mile from Kiwanis Park, this estate offers rare privacy within city limits. At the property line is a small historic home on a separate nearly one-acre parcel, available for purchase separately.
