From the Agent: "John Fowler’s AIA award-winning Wasserman House comes to the open market for the first time. Designed by architect John Fowler, a Paul Rudolph protégé and later contemporary, the house’s striking massing and playful interior space distribution afford stunning points of view from within and without. Brutalist in form, yet warm and embracing in its use of materials, the Wasserman House was heavily published upon completion. Commissioned in 1964 and restored by the current owner in 2000, this breathtakingly original midcentury features a double living room divided by a sunken stone fireplace/conversation pit, a terraced primary bedroom, two restored period baths, a guest room with patio, office, a restored original kitchen with updated appliances, a dining area, an additional bedroom currently configured as a den, and stunning views of the forest and Saugatuck River beyond."

A long wooden walkway leads to the multistory home, which sits surrounded by a thick forest.
