Classic mid-century traditional in highly-acclaimed Glenbrook Valley. Only about 8 miles from downtown & named a top neighborhood by no less an authority than This Old House. Glenbrook's north of Bellfort sections feature the larger lots & beautiful mature trees.
Detached 2 car garage and extra wide driveway provides plenty of parking. The front first story windows have been upgraded.
Many great architectural details of the period. Foyer with terrazzo tile and cross-ribbed side-light panels. This shot taken from the spacious family room.
Beside the foyer is the first living area with crown molding & expansive windows for great natural light. Designed as a formal living area, it offers many potential uses. A home office, put in a pool table & make it a game room, you have lots of options! Formal dining at far end.
The crown molding in the foyer and living area extends into the formal dining. Another near full length window for great natural light.
The roomy kitchen has tons of counter and cabinet space. The cabinetry is in great condition. It still retains its period aqua counters paired with an upgraded sink & faucet & smooth top cooktop.

Really nice utility room adjacent to the breakfast area. Just out of view there is a whole wall space that could easily accommodate a second frig, freezer or both! Lots of good additional storage in this area as well. No hauling clothes out to the garage to do laundry!
A vintage tile half bath is also off the utility room.
Gigantic family room with beautiful wood parquet flooring, triple boxed out window, beamed ceiling detail, corner brick fireplace, built ins, and two closets.

Part two of the primary bath is the sink/vanity area with a nice-sized linen closet.
