Description
There are these clusters of architecturally significant mid-century modern neighborhoods around the country that are highly sought after. This area of Ogden, rich in history and charm, is a hidden gem that deserves a top spot on the list. Picturesquely placed at the foothills of Mount Ogden, it's a hotspot for stunning examples of mid-century architecture. Just a few blocks away, you'll find a gorgeous Art Deco high school, famously featured in the 1987 movie "Three O’Clock High." Back in the 50s and 60s, this was the place to be—and it's still making us consider a move to Ogden.
This home is set back slightly from the street, framed by mature oaks and beautifully landscaped grounds. The single-level layout is rare, and features a striking wall of floor-to-ceiling glass that stretches across the tall and wide front foyer. The layout is thoughtfully designed, with the primary and additional bedrooms on one side of the house, and the living and dining areas on the other. The indoor dining area seamlessly opens to a large glass-enclosed back patio, mirroring the home's front glass facade. This space is perfect for year-round enjoyment, allowing you to comfortably bask in the beauty of the private, well-manicured backyard.
The gentle glow of Nelson lamps hung in the foyer sets a warm, welcoming tone, and makes a stylish statement from the street. Architecturally, this home is a visual delight, ready for an owner who appreciates its design and place in history. It's a standout home in an amazing area. If you know then you know, but, if you haven't checked out Ogden lately, it's time to make a trip. No need to ask me twice–I'll meet you there.
