Stunning Mid-Century Modern Revival: A Streng Brothers Masterpiece. Welcome to a rare piece of Davis history. Originally designed by Carter Sparks and the Streng Brothers, this iconic "Garden Home" was completely reimagined in 2010 by Kristin Gratacap of Aethos Atelier, Paris. It flawlessly blends mid-century post-and-beam architecture with high-end, sustainable modern luxury. Property Highlights: Premium Finishes: FSC-certified Nicoyan Nogal wood floors paired with seamless porcelain tile that flows gracefully from the street, through the entry, and out to the back patio. Owned, 16 panel, 5.28KW Solar system included. Striking Entryway: Custom gallery entry featuring a dry garden of white stone and Red Dogwood twigs, set against a stunning accent wall of 1850s reclaimed Oregon water-pipe redwood. Chef's Kitchen: The heart of the home boasts a custom island with a concrete pony wall and a 13-ply plywood standing bar. Fully equipped with a Bosch 5-burner gas stove, double electric ovens, and dishwasher. The sink perfectly frames the garden. Indoor-Outdoor Living: Three massive Fleetwood sliding glass doors open to an expansive terrace and mature wisteria arbor. Premium Fleetwood glass and clerestory windows flood the home with natural light. Features a refinished central masonry fireplace. Smart & Custom: Lutron recessed dimmable lighting, built-in suspended wood storage, plus a custom-built dining table (seats 12) and office desk designed for the home. Luxury Baths: Outfitted with premium floor-mounted Toto fixtures, a relaxing Jacuzzi tub, and a Toto heated seat. Storage: Laundry room with utility sink, enclosed garage with storage racks, and an attached shed. (Note: Extra stock of primary home materials is included!) Flexible Floor Plan & Future Potential: Virtually 4 Bedrooms: Currently lives as a spacious 3-bed, 2-bath home plus a dedicated office/piano room AND an additional guest bed/study. The guest room effortlessly transforms into a true 4th bedroom simply by removing sliding doors connecting it to the family room. Expansion Plans Included: The property comes with architectural plans for "Option B" (a 4-bed, 3-bath layout) or "Option C" (the ultimate retreat: a 4-bed, 4-bath configuration featuring 3 ensuite bedrooms).
