Introducing ''The Butterfly House,'' a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of the most recognizable and beloved homes in the historic West Hill community. Set on a rare DOUBLE lot of over an acre, this iconic Mid-Century Modern residence has been lovingly cared for by just two families since it was built. Surrounded by extraordinary gardens originally designed by a master gardener, the property offers a breathtaking blend of architecture, nature, and privacy rarely found in today's market. Inside, walls of windows blur the line between indoors and out, filling the home with natural light and showcasing spectacular views in every season. The dramatic fireplace anchors the living space, while thoughtful updates preserve the home's architectural character without sacrificing modern comfort. Recent improvements include a NEW ROOF by Star Roofing, Andersen replacement windows, two beautifully renovated bathrooms, and the septic serviced.

The current owners have meticulously maintained extensive records, photographs, receipts, association newsletters dating back decades, and documentation of major improvements, offering the next owner a rare connection to the home's rich history. Located within the highly sought-after West Hill Assoc. and Schalmont School District, residents enjoy access to tennis and pickleball courts, walking and cross-country skiing trails, a community pond and gazebo, garden club, seasonal celebrations, neighborhood gatherings, and a lifestyle built around connection, recreation, and nature.
