Property Description
Designed by renowned architect Pietro Belluschi and built in 1941, the Joss House is a perfect example of Belluschi's design ethos of "eloquent simplicity" and one of the most beautiful and significant Northwest Regional Style homes in the area. The use of locally sourced natural materials in combination with exquisite yet simple, modern design has created a soothing interior space in harmony with the surrounding landscape. The home has been thoughtfully updated in the kitchen and bathrooms for modern living while preserving and improving on the aesthetics of the original design. The stunning living room features vaulted wood ceilings with exposed beams, clear cedar walls, floor to ceiling windows blurring the lines between the indoor and outdoor spaces, and a unique concrete gas fireplace with built-ins surrounding. The dining space that is open to the adjacent living room has a wall of windows overlooking the beautifully landscaped yard. The kitchen was updated by Hammer & Hand with modern amenities, high quality wood built-ins, casement windows and a quaint dutch door. The main level has 3 bedrooms with built in details and an updated bathroom. The upper level is a bedroom suite with a sensitively updated bathroom, vaulted wood ceiling and a unique vent system.Rare wide oak flooring and clear cedar clad walls are seen throughout the home, a hallmark of the NW Style. The L shaped home was thoughtfully designed into its .68 acre lot whose landscape has been lovingly crafted so that views from within are beautiful at every angle. Majestic maple trees surrounded by a field of daffodils beckon you to lounge in the cozy hammock or enjoy a thrilling swing from their huge branches. This tranquil oasis feels like a country vacation home yet is just minutes to the city center. The lower level features storage space with laundry facilities. The detached double car garage has storage or workshop space. Rare opportunity to own a special home in unincorporated Mult County!
