Description

*An offer deadline has been established for 1631 Walnut Heights. Please submit all offers by Monday, May 18th at 12:00 PM for consideration.* Built in 1958 for Edward G.

Newly installed windows bring natural light throughout the interior, while an enclosed screen porch extends the living space outward and easily connects to the surrounding landscape. Outside, thoughtfully designed entertaining areas make the property feel equally suited for quiet mornings or larger gatherings. What stands out about the Hertel House is how naturally it reflects Mid-Century architecture's ideals. Spaces flow together while still maintaining a sense of purpose, natural materials bring warmth and texture, and expansive windows allow li
