Description

Designed and built by renowned modernist architect, Bruce J. Graham for his own personal use, 24 Holly joined the famous portfolio of structurally beautiful international projects in 1962. Graham embraced mid-century simplicity through minimalism and pushed the boundaries of construction and architectural expression. This is your chance to revitalize an authentic original mid-century modernist home, or create your dream oasis! Find this gem nestled among mature pines on a .32 acre private lot just two blocks to ocean beaches, in the sought after, prestigious community of North Shores. Due to the open ground level structure and airy courtyard, 24 Holly appears to float delicately above what once was an open vista of dunes - now nestled just beneath the tree canopy. Your quintessential beach home awaits, just steps from Cape Henlopen State Park, Whiskey Beach, Junction Breakwater Bike Trail and Intercoastal Waterway. Break out your caftan, headscarf and your oversized sunglasses. Rinse your martini glasses and kick back in this original Atrium Courtyard Home. The charming four bedroom, three bath home offers a unique setting for gathering and entertaining. This home exudes authentic 1960's beach retreat appeal. Featuring cedar and cypress paneling, a built-in low sofa, double glass doors from every room onto a second story veranda overlooking the open screened patio below - each private space converges onto the enclosed outdoor living area. Ideal for beach life; shower outdoors on the ground level and leave the sand toys and surfboards on the covered carport below. Kick off your flipflops in the courtyard and ascend the open staircase to the screened veranda for happy hour. There is plenty of storage for bikes, boards, beach chairs and coolers. The open living area offers room to lounge on rainy days, and host large dinner parties. For lovers of modern living, this lot is a large flat square, ideal for new construction of a custom home build, and room for an inground pool. Come see this vintage gem and bring your Architect. Your private oasis awaits, just steps from the yacht basin, Atlantic Ocean and North Shores amenities. Priced to sell, this property is a must see. *Rarely exercised, the Board of North Shores has 'First right of refusal'.Show Description
