Public Remarks: Beautiful mid century modern lakefront home on Lake Fairview!! Main house features three bedrooms and two baths with large spacious living areas.. Attached to the main house is an Inlaw/rental apartment with living, kitchen and bedroom and views of the lake. This home was lovingly built and conceived by the same family that owns it today. The builder framed this house with 2x6 timbers, providing greater strength. The roof is steel beamed & the cross beams are reinforced to provide additional protection. Walls of Sumter County fieldstone are scattered throughout the home. Interior paneling is Phillippine Mahogany, and in lieu of paint or stain they chose to use Cabot's Bleaching Oil to give it a driftwood look. Other unique features are knees of cypress driftwood used to form many of the door handles; a bar that opens to both the kitchen and living room and a king sized family room, originally designed to be used as a dance studio - the reason for the large mirror, is now an amazing gathering space with views to the lake. Attention to detail and use of space can be seen today in this great home. One such example is the kitchen: even high-end kitchens used Formica back then, but the owners chose quarry tile with a raised lip to prevent spills, and that was innovative at that time as well as being durable and beautiful. The home and apartment have terrazzo throughout, with the apt floor just being ground and polished to showcase potential of the rest of the floors. Seller has the original detailed plans.
