The Kessler Parkway Glass House is on the Market!

It’s a well-established fact that architect Gary Cunningham is a genius. His entire career has been founded on pushing ideas to the limit, innovative use of materials, and making us think. That is more than evident in his imaginative Kessler Parkway glass house
Cunningham designed this 3,043-square-foot Kessler Parkway glass house in 1999. Almost totally concealed in the treetops that overlook Kessler Park and Coombs Creek, you have to keep a keen eye on the house numbers to find it, which certainly helps with privacy. When you arrive and look up the hill, you can just make out three two-story walls of windows, and yes, you do have to draw a breath because it’s dramatic.
A winding staircase or a four-seat funicular takes you from the street-level garage to the entry. If you choose the stairs, you can catch your breath and enjoy the koi pond with a cocktail because this level also features a wet bar and media room. Don’t worry. There’s an elevator nearby with access to all the floors of this Kessler Park glass house.
The party really gets started on the second level, where you have the main living space and those breathtaking views. As our own Executive Editor Joanna England wrote about this home when it was on the market back in 2013:
It reminds you of Cameron’s house from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, doesn’t it? Truly, this home is a temple to the contemporary. The polished concrete, the exposed steel supports, the suspension cables — it’s industrial chic!
I would not wait around on this one, folks. Our friends at the New York Times featured 1322 Kessler Parkway last weekend, and the calls have been pouring into Christie’s International ULTERRE listing agent Brandon Latham. At only $2 million, this Kessler Parkway glass house is the perfect hideaway for those that crave cutting-edge architecture and the ultimate in privacy.
I’ve been in this house for a party and it is truly spectacular.
