Property Description
Though located in a prime location, you'll feel a world away from everything as you step onto this two-acre property nestled in an established, quiet, highly desirable neighborhood in Bloomington. Situated at the end of a tree-lined boulevard and mere minutes from shopping, dining, parks, and much more, this property provides the discerning buyer convenient access to Bloomington-Normal's amenities. Meandering through a professionally designed landscape of boulders and mature trees, the 1000-foot stamped, color concrete walking/garden path lines the perimeter of the property. With six entrances from the greater yard, as well as four seating vignettes throughout, this pathway provides the perfect opportunity for taking in the beauty of the property's park-like setting while relaxing in your own private sanctuary. The five bedroom, two and a half bath home is original to the property. Built in 1963 as a birthday gift for the previous owner's wife, this authentic Mid-century Modern split-level home features two fireplaces (one on the main level and a second in the lower level), an attached two-car garage, a spacious main level to accommodate an eat-in kitchen with an adjacent dining room, a powder room, an inviting entry foyer, and a living room with a fireplace flanked by built-ins. The upper level (6 steps up) features a roomy master bedroom with an attached master bath, three additional bedrooms, and a full bath. The lower level (6 steps down) houses a great room, a utility room, and an additional bedroom. Upon stepping inside, you'll appreciate the many unique features and elements highlighted in this Mid-century Modern era gem: original cabinets and countertops throughout, geometric lines, original bathroom tile and fixtures, and expansive panes of glass allowing light to flood the home. Reminiscent of a bygone era, this quality-built home allows the homeowner to experience true integration with nature and embrace the beautiful surroundings. The carriage house, built in 2013 by Charlie Knapp Builders, is beautiful and impeccable in both form and function. Every detail/feature included within the carriage house exudes quality (Loewen windows, Carlisle Wide Plank Floors, copper gutters & downspouts, slate roofing, custom-made corbels, stone shipped in from Montana, custom-made bronze light fixtures, custom made doors, and more). With a full bath and walk-in tiled shower and the kitchen roughed in, the upper level is perfect for entertaining, hosting gatherings, or for any other number of uses. This architectural marvel is waiting to be enjoyed! Cultivated over time, this unique two-acre property provides a veil of seclusion and natural wonder. The owners have invested a lot of thought, sweat equity, and resources into this amazing property. Be the economic beneficiary of this labor of love and enjoy the exclusivity of owning one of the unique properties on Moore Road! A rare offering indeed!
