1011 N. Tanglebriar Lane

Located in the heart of Mt. Sequoyah on about an acre of property only five minutes from campus and downtown, this classic mid-century modern home—first built in 1975 by Jim Blair—and then expanded twice, first with a major addition in the 90s and then with two Marlon Blackwell-designed additions circa 2010 at a cost exceeding $1.8 million—now has 6100-plus square feet of heated and cooled space under roof. It has a skylit four car garage with two storage rooms and Tesla charger, large three-season sunroom, fully screened front porch, covered porch off the gym, large deck with full outdoor kitchen off the sunroom and master bedroom, and an extensive stone patio overlooking the private back yard.

The main floor of the house features a two story entry, massive stone fireplace with central chimney spanning two floors (converted to gas), modern stairway, dining room with built-in hutch and glass doors, living room with vaulted ceiling, and rear entry hall with stone floor and walk-in closet off the screened porch. The classic MSM kitchen has dual built-in wall ovens, built-in Samsung Bespoke refrigerator, huge stainless steel farmhouse sink, gas cooktop with both downdraft and overhead venting, illuminated plexiglass ceiling, green marble counters, and new tile backsplash. It also has a large breakfast bar adjacent to the huge den with built-in window seat and other extensive built in cabinets and shelves, plus two large closets, one of which houses an additional refrigerator and the other equipped for dog duty with a closable doggie door with access to an all gravel fenced-in dog yard out back. A wall of glass separates the den from the sunroom with access to the deck and large back yard. Cork flooring runs throughout the entire man floor and sunroom.

Off the rear entry hall there is a small bedroom/office with walk-in closet and stone wall and cork flooring, an additional bedroom with vaulted ceiling and two closets, one with a desk inside, and redone guest bathroom.

The huge, 37-foot long master suite has its own living area with built-in cabinets, tons of windows, exposed beams, a wall of casement windows, access to expanded rear deck with deluxe spa/hot tub and TV below, skylights, his and hers walk-in closets, and a completely redone master bath with two-person shower, urinal, two sinks in new quartz countertop, tons of built-ins with laundry chute, skylight, and fully automatic bidet toilet.

On the ground floor, there is an 800-plus square foot gym with the first Ozark sedum green roof ever built in the state is fully equipped with a padded floor, six figures worth of CYBEX commercial gym equipment, new HVAC system, and large TV with surround sound. It also has an irrigation system tied into the yard irrigation system as a separate zone, and its own entrance so guests don’t have to go through the house.

There is also a small wine seller, laundry room with built-ins and sink and new quartz countertop, large office area with built-in storage, separate sewing area with walk in closet, and art/crafting room with built in desks and shelving. The huge family room/den area features an original stone fireplace (converted to gas) and conversation pit with built in bench, hundreds of feet of built in bookcases, indirect lighting, its own entrance and more. There is an additional guest bedroom and renovated full bath across the hall, along with more storage closets.

The house also features cork floors throughout, new custom two-inch retro blinds with wide tape, four Hisense large screen TVs throughout on pull out mounts, surround sound in three rooms, and three high tech HVAC systems with nest thermostats and electrostatic filters, central gas boiler for heat and domestic hot water, and separate water heater. It is also equipped with a fully automatic natural gas whole house generator, 50-amp RV hookup, irrigation system on separate meter, $100K-plus patterned concrete driveway, all-new automatic landscape lighting, original metal sculptures, an 8 foot metal chicken, metal Razorback pigs, and planting beds done by Blue Ribbon lawns. The mansard roof has all new cedar shingles and exterior was professionally repainted in authentic mid-century modern colors. Extensive tree work has been done and the back yard is fully fenced.

Sensitively renovated by Mark and Sonya Zweig and meticulously maintained, 1011 N. Tanglebriar Lane presents an extremely rare opportunity to own a home of this size and condition in close-in Mt. Sequoyah on an estate size lot. Listed with Dale Carlton of Carlton realty for $2.2 million.

Sometimes all it takes is a few good decisions to take a basic house with good bones and transform it into something that is magazine-worthy and would sell for top dollarwithin a week of listing. Every decision you make—the materials used, colors, type of paint or stain, what gets painted what color, window muntins, porch shape, gutters, doors selected, awnings, foundation treatment, size and placement of shrubs, tree trimming, power washing—all of these details add up to create something special that is more than just a house in a location to be sold at a price per sq foot that other houses there have sold for.

It’s design but it’s more than just design. Its obsession with every detail that creates a unique whole.

As many might know, we retired from our design/build/development business and sold off all of commercial and residential rental properties. That said, I like to stay busy and see opportunity for improvement all around us!

if you need some expert advice or opinion on your residential construction or remodeling, I am available to a limited extent to help out. I have been doing this stuff for a long time and have a pretty good track record when it comes to knowing what improvements to make and how to make them to maximize your return on investment.

Painting cabinets is where details really matter. In our large midcentury modern house, for example, we have cabinets and built-ins everywhere. And every single one of them has these continuous hinges on its doors. These counter height cabinets, for example, have 28 screws holding each hinge in place. Our painters removed every single one of them prior to painting vs trying to mask them or paint over them as most would do. That would ruin them forever more as far as I am concerned. The paint would never stick to the hinges and it would look like Hell quickly.

Also—always use oil base, never latex, and paint the insides of all cabinets when you paint the out so they are nice and fresh.

When it comes to painting the exterior of a house, there’s a lot more to it than picking colors. It’s also about WHAT gets painted WHAT color. I see a million mistakes every day that I wish people had asked me about! Columns that don’t match the house or make the porch roof look like it’s floating. Dark window trim with light colored windows. Some trim painted and other trim not painted because that’s what the painter felt like doing. I could go on but believe me I see tons of mistakes every day.

It’s also about what paint the painters use. NEVER allow your painter to use latex on your doors unless you want to be touching them up every week for the rest of the time you own the place. It’s soft. It scratches with a finger nail. It sticks to the weatherstrip in hot weather. No matter what they tell you about how good the latex is, do not listen!

If anyone wants design assistance on a residential project, both my wife and myself are available for limited time engagements if you need it.

We don’t draw, but we just talk and give you ideas with the benefit of our experience doing more renovations of houses in this town that we owned than anyone else.

Help with selling a house that isn’t selling? Help with a site plan? Help with picking colors? Planning an addition? Need to freshen up your exterior and yard? Interior? We are here and can do it. Our input is based on successful experience doing lots and lots of houses that always sold at top prices.

We only do this because we love it, and it pains us to see people waste money doing the wrong things that don’t maximize their property values.

Message me if you are interested.

Jetson

The “Jetson” line of mid-century modern glassware was inspired by the space age design of the late ‘50s and early ‘60s. These glasses make me want to sip a cool glass of Tang or Fresca on the back patio of my ranch house!
