Step back in time at 287 Grizzly Road, a 1967 mid-century modern residence—originally designed by AIA architect R. Neil Manos and known as the “Mountain Cabin”—with lake views and a wealth of original features. Vertical cedar siding anchors the captivating exterior of the home amid towering pines. Inside, the main floor boasts vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and eye-catching, unique architectural elements, floor-to-ceiling windows, and sweeping lake and mountain views. A wood-paneled living area with a wood-burning fireplace opens to a formal dining space adorned by two notable Herman Miller Nelson pendant lights, original built-in shelving reflecting the home’s signature red stripe—carried from the front of the house throughout the interior and out onto the decks—and a lake view, adjacent to an updated galley kitchen. Expect authentic mid-century details, including the three original Herman Miller light fixtures, an open-back built-in, and a sunken wet bar, an unexpected detail for added entertainment. Sliding doors flank the fireplace, opening to a spacious deck for lounging, dining, and embracing the unparalleled lake and mountain views. The main floor is complete with a powder room adorned with original mid-century modern sconces. Down the original pebble-stone and concrete stairs are two full baths and three ample-sized bedrooms, one serving as a recreation and bunk room. Each bedroom offers tree views and exposed wood beams. One bath remains a 1960s time capsule with original tile and wood paneling. This home is a true collectors piece.
