Description
A rare opportunity to own one of Bloomington's most exceptional homes-where timeless mid-century modern design meets a high-end renovation. Designed by acclaimed architect Harry Riddle Jr., this home reflects a rare era when homes were crafted around the land, the light, and the way people truly live. From the moment you walk in, the home offers a sense of warmth and comfort that is hard to replicate. The main level has been completely transformed, featuring meticulously installed wood flooring-each board custom-cut to seamlessly integrate with the original stone elements. Designer lighting throughout, including West Elm fixtures, elevates every space. The kitchen is a true showpiece, blending function and luxury. Custom cabinetry by Kemp Cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium Bosch appliances set the tone, while thoughtful details like a Kohler workstation sink with integrated accessories, built-in charging station, pull-out spice rack, and custom peg-organized drawers make everyday living effortless. A striking black and gold Kohler faucet adds a refined finishing touch. The space flows beautifully into a cozy sitting area centered around a fireplace, as well as additional cabinetry and a beverage fridge-perfect for entertaining. Expansive two-story windows in the living room frame the professionally landscaped backyard and fill the home with natural light. Indoor-outdoor living is seamless, with a full-length deck, screened-in dining area, and additional front patio access directly from the kitchen-ideal for entertaining. Upstairs, a versatile loft space offers the perfect setting for a home office, library, or additional living area. Three bedrooms include a stunning primary suite featuring a private deck, walk-in closet, and a completely redesigned spa-like bath with heated tile floors, custom tiled shower with seating and built-ins, double vanity, and a luxury bidet system. The lower level is truly one-of-a-kind. Designed for both relaxation and entertainment, it includes a flexible living space (ideal for a gym, theater, or family room), an additional bedroom with walk-out access, and a hidden speakeasy-style bar. This remarkable space features custom bar and back bar finishes, sink, slim dishwasher, beverage cooler, and a Norwegian Jtul fireplace-creating an unforgettable atmosphere that feels transported from another era. The outdoor setting is just as impressive. Mature trees provide privacy, while a tranquil pond, gazebo, and multiple entertaining areas create a peaceful, park-like retreat. Backing to a park with direct access to trails and near Ewing Manor, the location enhances the home's already unmatched appeal. High end update. Architecturally authentic. Emotionally captivating. This is more than a home-it's an experience.
