1316 S Nancy Street

Stunning Mid Century Modern designed by local architect Elaine Doenges. The entrance to the home is a large room with floor to ceiling windows facing the front and rear decks. It could be a sitting area, office, or additional space for dining or entertaining. To the right of the entrance is a free standing wood cabinet that acts as a divider from the spacious living room. The cabinet doubles as a coat closet at the entry and a storage cabinet in the spacious living room. Beyond the divider in the vaulted living room is a floor to ceiling wall of limestone. The adjoining wall has a large triple window that follows the vault to the ceiling. Opposite this is a fireplace with limestone wall and adjoining window which continues around the corner and joins two more large windows facing the rear deck and back yard. Entry and kitchen are hardwood. Opposite the living room is the kitchen as well as the bedroom wing. There is a door in the entry as you enter the kitchen which provides access to the huge, covered rear deck with outdoor fireplace. This is a perfect space for dining and could accommodate several guests. As you enter the kitchen there is a counter with cabinets above and below and a wall of cabinets that extends to the rear door. Opposite this is an island with double sink and dishwasher as well as plenty of space for stools and dining. Behind the island is a built in oven, cooktop, counter space and refrigerator. At the opposite end of the kitchen is a large dining space with hardwood floors. All cabinetry, trim and hardwood flooring is original. Behind the kitchen is the bedroom wing with 2 bedrooms and a bath off the hall and a primary suite at the end with private bath, double closets and bookshelves. Floors in the primary bedroom are parquet. Off the dining area adjoining the kitchen is a door leading to an entrance to the garage, an outdoor deck and a staircase leading to a studio with full bath and closet. There is a door to the front yard off the deck so the studio can be accessed without entering the main home. A staircase leads to a large studio space. Built in bookcases separate the stairs from the studio. A double window is at the top of the stairs and transom windows continue on the same wall. This space is above the 2 car garage. The garage and studio space were added later.
