Over the past two decades, I’ve been trying to share the stories of these unique homes that I’ve listed. Some are whimsical, while others are simply historical accounts of their pasts. Well, I don’t know the architect of this particular home. However, the story goes that Milton Muir, the developer and builder of this home, purchased the land from the Colemere family in 1957, hence the name of the street. He must have been captivated by the modern architecture of the time, as he sought out architects who could help him bring his vision to life. This home was reportedly influenced by the Eichler style, a California architectural movement. Milton was known for building some of the most sought-after homes in the Olympus Cove area. He didn’t just stay on this street; he also expanded to Pebble Glen Circle, another charming cul-de-sac that backs up to this home.
What I love about this home is the central courtyard. You approach the house through a half-wall, but to reach the front door, you enter the courtyard, where you’re greeted by Eddy, a soulful two-year-old doodle of some kind. The living room features a perfectly positioned fireplace and an updated kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows that create the walls of glass that first caught your attention.
And here’s where I like to conclude by expressing my admiration for this house. But I don’t need to sell it to you; it’s already filled with love. This is the second generation in this family that has lived here, and they want someone to love their home as much as they do. Simply, that’s all I’m looking for. Oh, and by the way, Eddy doesn’t come with the house.
