Why this home stands out
What sets 4000 Rumford Lane apart is the combination of genuine mid-century bones and the kind of square footage that's harder to find in newer construction at this size. At 2,165 square feet across four bedrooms, the floor plan gives everyone room to spread out. The half-bath adds everyday practicality, and a 1957 build means solid construction with the character details — think real wood, generous room proportions, and a lot that reflects the era's more spacious suburban planning.
