395 meadow lane

Truly iconic within the Mid-Century Modern tradition, this architectural treasure was designed by renowned architect J. Arthur Drielsma and is being offered for the first time in nearly 50 years—a rare opportunity to own a genuine design showpiece. Ideally positioned on a generous corner parcel, 395 Meadow Lane embodies timeless design and effortless flow. From the moment you arrive, the home’s commitment to its architectural roots is unmistakable, with floor-to-ceiling glass and clerestory windows that flood the interiors with natural light. A dramatic double-door entry welcomes you inside, where an interior fountain and pond set a serene tone. The raised living area features open-beam and tongue-and-groove ceilings, anchored by a striking fireplace that creates both warmth and visual impact. Just beyond, the private primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, generous closet space, and a well-appointed en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath with period-appropriate tile and fixtures, and a dedicated office space provide flexibility for modern living. Behind the garage, a separate bonus area offers the potential for a studio, office, or additional bedroom. The open floor plan creates an impressive sense of volume, with seamless transitions from room to room across the width of the home. Expansive glass invites views of the private outdoor retreat, complete with a pool, bar, and fire pit—an ideal setting for both intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. While many have attempted to replicate the defining elements of Mid-Century Modern design, this residence is the real thing—an original that has been meticulously maintained and cherished for decades. Located just moments from the Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve, award-winning schools, the renowned beaches of the Newport Peninsula, and the vibrant shops and dining along 17th Street, 395 Meadow Lane presents a truly exceptional opportunity to own an architectural gem in one of the area’s most desirable settings.
