First time on the market, this 1963 custom domed home was designed by architect David Clements as his personal residence. Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, this home harmoniously blends Organic design with Mid-Century Modern elements with respect to functionality, unique details, and the seamless flow of indoor and outdoor space. Wrought iron and glass double doors open to a large vaulted foyer with skylights and terra cotta tiles. Beyond the bright and airy entrance is the oversized living room with fireplace and floor to ceiling wood framed windows spanning the length of the home. Offering an abundance of natural light, the living room seamlessly flows into an adjacent seating room on one side and separate dining room on the other side. The kitchen includes O’keefe and Merritt double oven and gas cook top, original soft pink tile countertops, and original oak cabinets with a floating lower cabinet. The open yet defined floorplan makes this the ideal home for entertaining. The main level of the home has 2 full bathrooms and 2 bedrooms. The primary bedroom offers views of mature fruit and floral trees and beautiful landscaping. The primary ensuite bathroom features a sliding door that leads to a secluded atrium. The secondary bedroom is unique in both layout and features, including windows and angular built-in cabinetry lining the walls, and a private office area with glass ceiling that also leads out to the atrium. The second level is truly the star of the home. Featuring t-grid wood beams, smoked plexiglass dome, wood paneling, wood framed windows, and a full all-in-one cobalt blue tiled bathroom, this remarkable loft space has endless possibilities! Recent upgrades include a new hot water heater, fresh interior paint, and an updated AC/heating system. In close proximity to Old Towne Orange, do not miss the opportunity to make this piece of architectural history your own!
