Privately tucked away among rolling grounds, mature trees, scenic pastures, and exceptional equestrian amenities, 33W451 Surrey Road captures the timeless charm and character of a remarkable mid-century estate while offering an unparalleled setting rarely found today. Built as a showcase of 1950s architecture and craftsmanship, this sprawling custom ranch is an extraordinary time capsule filled with authentic details, rich history, and architectural significance throughout.
