LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION- Situated on nearly 3 acres, this oasis has not been on the market in 50+ years. Frazier, Rafferty, Orr and Fairbank designed this home for Samual J Walker in 1927. Approximately 3 years later, David Adler added another layer onto the design, with Frances Elkins adding signature decor elements. Special among the elements Lalique glass covers on several ceiling fixtures, bamboo cane moldings in the living room, Zuber wall coverings in the dining room, and a cerused quartersawn white oak library. Adler worked his magic incorporating porches into the home and window detail that is beyond compare. The primary bedroom has separate dressing/bathing rooms and closets. Two other bedrooms are ensuite and one guest wing complete the main residence. An apartment over the heated garage makes it ideal for help or guests. A lovely mid century Frazier designed pool house with 2 changing rooms and baths separated by a living area and kitchenette is beautifully situated on the property overlooking the pool. SHOWINGS BEGIN 5/26/23
