A mid-century modern home by the architect Aaron Green (apprentice to and partner of Frank Lloyd Wright) is offered for sale in the affluent Hill Top neighborhood of Denver, CO. The 1956 era Eudora Street home shows the synergy of the two men, featuring many of the details for which both Wright and Green were best known. The house is long and low to the ground, built of brick and natural wood with a broad brick chimney. The plan is open and features walls of glass, which seem to obfuscate the boundaries between the indoors and the outdoors. Each owner has worked to preserve the integrity of the 4400 square foot home and the mid-century style while adding their own distinctive touches. The current owner acquired the house in the late 1990’s and undertook some of the most extensive renovations, designed to preserve the best of the mid-century style while giving the home modern amenities that today’s buyers demand. The renovations were completed in 2004 and included a new Bulthaup kitchen with Gaggenau, Sub-Zero & Bosch appliances and the addition of some magnificent tile work. A state of the art home theater system, a Brunswick pool table and a personal steam room were also added. All of the flooring was replaced with Bamboo and Berber insets and closets were updated, many were cedar lined and new custom closet doors of bird’s eye maple are an agreeable addition. A reflecting pool and Zen garden added to the professionally landscaped yard naturally complement the midcentury style of the home. And last but not least the mechanical systems were overhauled, much of the radiant heat was preserved but augmented by the addition of a commercial grade gas forced air furnace and central air conditioning was integrated into the furnace system. And now sadly, the home finds itself victim to the rebuilding of the neighborhood in a slightly different way. She is once again for sale as the current owners prepare to move into their new home which they have designed and built a mere block away. The move is described as a transition from a Mid-Century Modern Masterpiece to a 21st Century Modern Masterpiece. And the current owners admit to more than a little ambivalence about the move so fond have they become of their Aaron Green home. The house is a must see for anyone who appreciates modern architecture or mid-century style or who is searching for a unique home of architectural importance. This home has an approved short sale and ready to go. Hurry though because it won't last long.
