Featured in multiple publications! The home's dramatic new life opened the living spaces from front to rear, allowing light, views, and daily life to flow effortlessly throughout. Expansive new walls of glass connect indoor and outdoor living while framing views of the neighborhood park just across the street—an extension of the home's front yard and the perfect setting for play, gathering, and community. At the heart of the home is a truly chef's-level kitchen—thoughtfully designed for both serious cooking and effortless entertaining. Every detail was carefully considered to create a space where preparing meals becomes an experience and gathering with family and friends feels natural. Anchoring the kitchen is a premium BlueStar professional gas range featuring six burners, an integrated griddle, a full oven and additional half oven, all complemented by a commercial-grade ventilation system. Extensive cabinetry and storage solutions ensure every tool and ingredient has its place. The oversized six-foot center island serves as the natural gathering space of the home, offering seating for five and additional storage below, making it equally suited for casual breakfasts, homework sessions, or hosting guests while preparing dinner. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the entertaining experience extends beyond the walls of the home. Step outside to discover an outdoor culinary space complete with a built-in pizza oven, stainless steel gas grill, beverage station with beverage refrigerator, and an integrated cooler with drain—creating the ideal setting for summer gatherings, celebrations, and memorable evenings under the stars. Few homes offer this level of culinary capability and entertaining flexibility. Oversized living and entertaining spaces anchor the main level, where warm wood floors run throughout and Mid-Century design elements including a wood burning fireplace, remain celebrated. The beautifully crafted bedroom wing centers around a luxurious primary suite featuring a soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, generous walk-in closet, and custom Mid-Century-inspired built-in cabinetry. Two additional bedrooms and an updated bath complete the main level. Flooded with southern light, the lower level captures the essence of Mid-Century living with a spacious family and media room anchored by a gas fireplace. Additional amenities include a three-quarter bath, laundry room, abundant storage, and one of the home's most delightful surprises—a secret room leading to wine storage and a dedicated workout and home gym space. Even the often-overlooked tuck-under garage shines here, offering naturally tempered space ideal for bikes, gear, hobbies, and additional storage year-round. Outside, discover exceptional entertaining spaces designed for every season: in addition to the outdoor kitchen, dining terrace you will find a covered modern gazebo, and a barrel sauna create a private retreat, unlike any other. End that perfect evening with a fire in the fire pit! Location truly matters. Situated in Golden Valley's iconic Mid-Century enclave, this home enjoys immediate access to parks, trails, and recreation while remaining just minutes from shopping, dining, and entertainment at The West End.
