A MID-CENTURY HIDDEN GEM WITH GREAT POTENTIAL - Built in 1951, this captivating home was crafted by renowned architect Fred Langhorst, a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin. Nestled on a knoll, floor-to-ceiling windows invite stunning panoramic views of the City and Bay. This iconic piece of history exemplifies Mid-Century modern design at its finest, showcasing organic architecture that blends with its natural surroundings, influenced by Wright, Eichler, and Langhorst's unique style.  This single-level residence features 3+ bedrooms, 2 baths, and an open-concept layout that welcomes sunlight and nature from every angle, situated on a spacious and tranquil lot. The backyard, with its beautiful eucalyptus trees, attracts deer, adding to the serene atmosphere of the neighborhood. For more than 60 years, this home buzzed with laughter, the joyful sounds of children playing outside, friends chatting around the dining table, and the record player always providing just the right tunes. At 15 Somerset, warmth radiates throughout, right down to the original Gaffers & Sattler stove. Now its ready for its next chapter, an exciting opportunity for the fortunate buyer to restore and reimagine this treasure into its full glory.
