Description

Here is a truly rare opportunity to own one of the most architecturally unique and iconic homes in the Dayton area! Known by many as simply The Round House, this one-of-a-kind Mid-Century Modern gem was built in 1960 by Newport Brothers Builders, developers of Rean Meadows subdivision in Kettering. It originally served as a design showpiece and office for Elzo Newport who won numerous awards and national notoriety for this house and his other designs. Featuring a central, raised Rotunda Living Room with a 12-foot vaulted ceiling that juts above the main roof line, some have suggested the house looks like a space ship. Clerestory windows encircling the room bring an abundance of light into the space and add to the exterior effect. Boasting over 2,800 round feet of living, you’ll find no lack of functional space as you traverse the hallway that rings the Rotunda. There are 4 generous Bedrooms and a Study plus 2 Full and 1 Half Baths. It’s easy to see why one would spend a lot of time in the comfortable Family Room. This area is adjacent to the Kitchen, hosts the home’s Fireplace, dining space and overlooks the large, rear perennial garden. The Primary Bedroom features a coved ceiling, updated Bath and has a second entrance to Bedroom 4 recently used as a Sitting Room which also leads to an adjacent Study. These 3 rooms create a spectacular Owner’s Suite yet provide great flexibility for other uses. A Jack-n-Jill Bath rests between the remaining Bedrooms. RECENT UPDATES: Full Silicone re-coating of the Main House Roof, New Garage Roof - both with extended warranties, New Tankless Water Heater, Top-to-Bottom Interior Painting, Electrical upgrades. Being sold to settle an estate, the family hopes for a new owner who will preserve and steward this unique home for years to come.
