From the Agent: "Presenting the Good Residence, a property that has been under the same ownership for 63 years and never before on the market. The Good Residence sits comfortably at the top of a long ascending driveway on a piece of land that was carefully chosen and purchased in 1960 by the Good family. It’s a thoughtful and secluded lot on which they’d soon thereafter build their lifelong family residence. The Good family’s dream home was inspired by the iconic Philip Johnson Glass House, and they sought to construct a sharp midcentury home with a pool and stunning views, encompassed by nature, sky, and natural light. The structure is rich in graceful original details such as oversized floor-to-ceiling windows and unblemished original wooden panelling, closets, and built-ins that still feel remarkably untouched. A large pool and several entertaining spaces in the backyard are ideal for summer parties, outdoor dining, and playtime with children and pets."

The 1960s home sits on a spacious lot with tall trees and lush landscaping.
