Imagine a home where Mother Nature herself played architect, planting it firmly on solid rock within a nature sanctuary, established 115 years ago. This Prinz and Brooks Mid-Century Modern dream, in Frank Lloyd Wright style, floats above a spring-fed lake, offering serene luxury, moments to downtown. A masterpiece that winks at you with elegance, innovation. Inside, rich walnut paneling and travertine floors wrap you in a warm embrace. Sunlight floods panoramic windows, blurring the line between indoor charm and outdoor splendor. The chef's kitchen is a culinary playground, featuring top-tier appliances, begging for your next gourmet creation. The primary suite is a romantic hideaway, complete with a balcony view that makes every morning feel magical. Outside, manicured gardens and sparkling pool nestle into the rolling hills. Two guest quarters reno ready. With only 2 owners in 68 years, the Hayes-Bernstein residence is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to be a guardian of history

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
