This well-built mid-century modern townhome complex was designed in 1965 by Ezra Gordon, architect working with Harry Weese and is distinctive for its parkway plantings and shared private courtyard. This home is a corner unit with great light and is one of the largest homes in the development. It lives like a single-family home with its ample storage and closets. The home features 4 bedrooms all on the second floor with a primary bedroom and ensuite bath and a second full bath, all updated in a stylish way. The first floor has a wonderful floorplan for a modern family, with a foyer with coat closet, an open living room and dining room, a powder room and a very large open eat-in kitchen, redone in a contemporary style with plentiful cabinetry and a built-in pantry. The kitchen has large picture windows and overlooks a fenced backyard with a patio and shed. There is also a finished basement with a sizable family room, built-in laundry and special workroom. New Marvin oak windows and stunning custom window treatments throughout. Convenient assigned parking space right behind the home. Easy street parking as well. This gem is very close to the UC campus, grocery shopping, restaurants, and all that Hyde Park has to offer.
