Designed by architect, Leon Chandler, and built by C.T. Schneider for the owners, this home has the timeless quality of excellent design and meticulous care. The interior has quiet serenity and perfect order. Wood paneled and stone interior walls are counterpoints to the walls of glass that open to the view. The casual floor plan centers on a huge, open living room with vaulted ceiling.
