Tucked into the sought-after Stevenson Village community, this beautifully maintained one-level mid-century ranch offers effortless living with timeless design. Set on a generous, .65-acre landscaped lot, the home’s long, low profile, stone façade, and clean rooflines create a striking first impression—perfectly capturing the essence of mid-century architecture. A charming stone walkway leads to the welcoming entry, framed by mature plantings and a picturesque flowering tree, while the home’s expansive front elevation hints at the spacious interior within. Blending inside and out, the entrance continues the stone from outside and slate flooring. An original mid-century modern cabinet/room divider completes the entrance area, which also includes modernist storage cabinets for coats and shoes. The sprawling rancher features five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bathroom, providing exceptional flexibility for modern living, whether for family, guests, or dedicated work-from-home spaces. The layout offers expansive living and dining areas filled with natural light, designed with an easy flow ideal for both daily living and entertaining. True to its mid-century roots, large windows bring the outdoors in, while the surrounding greenery provides a serene and private backdrop. The foyer enters into the expansive living room with luxury vinyl flooring and walls of glass overlooking the backyard. Just off the living room is the 5th bedroom or office space with full stone wall and fireplace. The bright kitchen features newer stainless-steel appliances and opens to the dining room with custom built ins and the sun room area. The main bedroom hallway features wood floors and includes four bedrooms, including the primary suite with custom wardrobe area and high-end bathroom with double sinks, shower and tub. The second full bathroom has two sinks and large glass-enclosed shower. The original garage and/or carport was converted into a large shop area or storage space.

Sugar from the 1940s through the 1960s, Stevenson Village is often compared to iconic modernist communities such as Hollin Hills—known for homes by Charles Goodman—and Carderock Springs, designed by Edmund Bennett and his partners. With its low-slung rooflines, expansive glass, and seamless integration with the natural landscape, Stevenson Village feels as though it could just as easily be found in Los Angeles or Palm Springs. Through his company, Gordon E. Sugar Inc., Sugar developed several hundred homes in the Stevenson Road area, creating a cohesive architectural vision defined by nearly flat roofs, walls of glass, and a deep connection to the surrounding landscape—an enduring legacy that continues to define the neighborhood today.
