Description

Are you a Mid-Century Modern architecture fan? The golf course residence at 201 Bannockburn is the embodiment of Eichler’s* new century modern design and much more! Some classic Eichler features found in this home are glass exterior walls (“Bringing the outside in”), an open floorplan, post and beam construction, steel tubular framing, tongue and groove ceiling decking, slab floor with integral radiant heating/cooling, finished polished terrazzo flooring, and an interior glass wall atrium. This home has been expertly restored, remodeled, and enlarged creating a unique and masterfully finished home with a great layout and with golf course views from every room, in addition to the home’s 75Ft long porch that overlooks the 10 and 18th holes of the historic Temple Terrace Golf Course. Renovations and additions are as follows: 960 ft addition of a bedroom, study, full bath, recreation, and laundry room; the enlargement of the garage from 1 to 4 car capacity with a work area and improved storage area above it; replacement of original windows with argon-filled hurricane rated, energy efficient glass; restored Terrazzo flooring and atrium with a grill; and a roof replacement in 2020 that included extra energy efficient insulation against radiant solar heating. Other improvements include kitchen and bathrooms updated with new fixtures, appliances, and 43 linear feet of granite countertops; plumbing updated/replaced and a new sewer line to the city (2020), a new water heater, 2 new air conditioners (2013, 2016), an updated electrical (from a 100-to-200-amp) panel with new wiring installed, and a new water softener (2019). This 3,128 sq ft, 4-bedroom, 3 bath home incorporates a living room with a wood burning fireplace and a recreation room in separate wings allowing for home entertainment yet privacy. Other features are a wonderful office and built-in areas for study or work from home. Elevated ceilings and skylights or transoms in most rooms allow nature views and filtered light creating a pleasing and calming environment. The lawn (nearly ½ acre) is watered by a 160 foot well with a submersible pump (2018). Documentation of all the renovations and additions may be found in a house book at the home.
