About the Listing 18041 - sbr486000471
*all offers due 06/13 by 5pm* Designed in 1965 by architect Bill Gilmore, the Davis House captures many of the qualities that make Mid-Century Modern architecture so enduring. Gilmore would later become a principal in the firm that evolved from Alden B. Dow's architectural practice, and this home reflects that legacy through its connection to nature, use of honest materials, and spaces thoughtfully designed for everyday living. Built for Gerald and Patricia Davis, the home sits on a generous parcel, taking full advantage of its natural setting. Like many of the great Mid-Century homes, it feels less placed on the land and more integrated with it. From the exterior, the architecture is immediately recognizable. Intersecting geometric forms, flat rooflines, and a combination of concrete block and wood create a sculptural composition. Inside, post and beam construction allows for open, light-filled spaces, while the split-level floor plan creates separation without sacrificing connection. The elevated living room overlooks the property through expansive walls of glass, bringing the landscape into everyday life. Natural light plays a central role throughout the home with many windows that frame views in every direction. At the heart of the home is a double sided fireplace, constructed from the same concrete block used on the exterior, creating continuity between the home's materials and its design. The setting is equally memorable. Mature trees, expansive grounds, a tree house, and even a zip line contribute to a sense of retreat and connection to nature that remains just as appealing today as it was in 1965. Nearly sixty years after its construction, the Davis House remains a compelling example of Mid-Century Modern design: a thoughtful expression of Mid-Century design, where architecture, landscape, and daily living work together as one.
