Property Description
Paul Tay, AIA, designed the Post House at the peak of his career in 1959. This mid-century modern masterwork includes many of his architectural hallmarks: expansive skylights, floating hearths, intricate breeze block, striking hardware, private atriums, interior clerestory windows and walls of glass. Nestled within almost 3,500 square feet, the scale of this estate is vast with four bedrooms, a formal living room, striking dining room, cozy family room, plus an expansive office / game room. Private spaces are quietly tucked along the wings of the home, while the public entertainment spaces are in the central hub of the home, surrounding the outdoor entertainment pavilion. The rambling floorplan embraces the curve of the lot and seamlessly blurs the lines between the indoors and outdoors through the 10-foot floor to ceiling sliding doors which provide a saturation of natural light that is beautifully reflected from the polished concrete floors. Expertly sited on an estate-sized lot of almost one third of an acre, the grounds can accommodate outdoor entertainment, colossal pool, immense gardens and a three-car garage. Rarely do homes of this architectural caliber become available within the esteemed neighborhood of Park Estates.
