Built in 1956
Rare opportunity to make a diamond shine! This mid-century modern home was designed and built in 1956 by renowned architect Jack West, leader of the Sarasota School of Architecture. Bringing this beauty back to life won't be for the faint of heart, but the results will be well worth the labor and investment. Don't let the photos fool you, the home has steel frame construction and no load-bearing interior walls. Through the carport door is the walkway to the home with a courtyard to the right and front yard to the left. The unique layout must be seen to be appreciated - the North wing and South wing are connected by two breezeways and a large common area centered around a free standing fireplace. This area was originally open air, but was enclosed at some point and roof there is failing. The North wing houses the living room with fireplace, kitchen, and dining areas. It also features the original limestone brick flooring. The bedrooms and bathroom lie across the way in the South wing. There you will find original Spanish tile flooring and the bathroom with sunken tub and original tub tiles that appear to be in good shape. In the backyard is a large pool with original brick coping, a potting shed that will need to be removed, and an old pump house in need of demolition. The roof needs replacement, plumbing replaced, wiring re-done, and some interior walls, finishes, and cabinetry re-done. ***DO NOT ENTER THIS PROPERTY WITHOUT A CONFIRMED APPOINTMENT FROM THE LISTING AGENT. IT IS NOT SAFE TO ENTER THE HOME UNACCOMPANIED DUE TO CONDITION OF THE ROOF***
