Property Description
This is a rare opportunity to own the only known Irving Tobocman-designed home in North Oakland County. Inspired by Bauhaus architects Mies Van Der Rohe and Albert Kahn, this pristine and untouched 1978 Irving Tobocman masterpiece is a 3,500 sq ft modernist icon that sits privately on two serene acres of an historic apple orchard. It is being offered publicly for the first time. Step into the dramatic foyer into the breathtaking 48 x 24-foot great room, where 21-foot custom-milled white oak vaulted ceilings soar above floor-to-ceiling glass walls that frame sweeping ravines. The gourmet kitchen features an oversized island, dual Bosch dishwashers, and new double ovens, flowing seamlessly to secluded decks suspended among the treetops. The first-floor primary sanctuary offers a Japanese soaking tub, expansive custom closet, and flexible studio space. The daylight lower level includes three bedroom suites, a sprawling family room, and enormous storage room. Additional highlights include a heated 3.5-car garage with its own cathedral ceilings—ideal for the car enthusiast or artisan—plus a workshop. This is not merely a home; it is living sculpture—meticulously preserved, profoundly peaceful, and perfectly integrated with nature. For the buyer seeking true architectural significance and modernist integrity, this is the one.
