Description

The Frances Edna Johnson Darger home, designed by Dick Jackson of Jackson & Jackson, is more than just a residence; it is a testament to Frances’s adventurous spirit and artistic vision. This mid-century prize, perhaps subtly influenced by the works of Frank Lloyd Wright, reflects the inspiration she drew from visiting his homes. Enamored by the rich warmth of reddish Roman brick, she selected it to adorn the exterior, perfectly complementing the long, low lines of its ranch-style architecture. Being tall herself, Frances envisioned a space with tall ceilings; the shed roofline achieved this while simultaneously framing the sweeping valley views below. The carport, integrated into the natural slope of the lot, anchors the home nicely. Intent on maximizing convenience, Frances ensured that the home included a main-floor laundry area, complete with a linen cabinet tucked neatly behind the washer and dryer-eliminating the need for trips downstairs. The kitchen is a model of mid-century efficiency, with custom cabinetry for china and linens, along with pull-out worktops at varying heights to accommodate any task. The floating staircase, a bold statement of the era, remains a beloved architectural centerpiece. The unique display window above the stairs offers a glimpse of the home’s character, even from the street, teasing its blurred lines and angles. Downstairs, one bedroom includes an entire wall of integrated storage, while other rooms are equipped with built-in desks and drawers, all intended to maximize floor space. Frances enlisted her friend, Merline Leaming of Clark Leaming Design, to assist with the interior design. Together, they created a home that is as functional inside as it is beautiful. “There are 9,000 ways to do a room,” Merline would say. “If you don’t like one, we’ll find another.” Merline’s design expertise is evident throughout the home, including in the distinctive downstairs bar-a beloved feature for entertaining. Frances’s husband, meticulously planned and installed lighting throughout the house, ensuring every corner was beautifully illuminated and even wiring extra switches in anticipation of future needs. For nearly 70 years, this home has been at the heart of Frances’s life. From her desk in the kitchen, she watched children play in the backyard, penned articles for the local paper, and immersed herself in a world of art, travel, and architecture through her extensive book collection. Despite her vast travels, it was always this home to which she longed to return. This is a special place, rich with history, inspiration, and love. Come and experience for yourself why this extraordinary home has been closely treasured for generations.
