Mid-Century Modern custom home built by Ralph C. Day in 1960 and set on a large 8,800sqft lot. Shaded by mature Jacaranda trees on the front this rectilinear home wraps around a pool with lots of privacy. Imagine embracing your inner Mad Men with a martini party here while listening to samba. So many original details have been preserved: the extra wide front door with a center knob, walls of glass, open beam ceilings, stone see through fireplace, light fixtures, tile and more. Wood floors in most rooms. Step inside and discover a groovy pad. The original hanging light fixture in a corner of the large foyer sets the tone. An ample Living room opens to the pool and patio, has open beam ceilings and a soaring stone fireplace. The dining room opens to the patio, kitchen and living rooms and has the other side of the fireplace. A real Master bedroom has a private bath with original tile work. Across the breezeway is a large 2 car garage with storage room, laundry room and a guest house with bath all original to the home. A private side yard has fruit trees and is perfect for a garden. Even the block wall has period open blocks. Part of the larger Floral Park neighborhood surrounded by period custom homes this is the perfect place to walk your dog of enjoy a bike ride through the neighborhood. Tennis courts are walking distance as are 3 parks. Award winning schools-call for details. Central air conditioning, newer paint, grass cloth original knobs make this home a delight.
