A luxury home renovated by a Yale dean has gone on sale for $4.95m (£3.85m).
The property was originally built in 1969 by renowned architect Milton Klein who designed the 6,500-square-foot, mid-century residence with glass walls, stark lines and an open floor layout.
But years later, in 2014, the dean of Yale School of Architecture, Deborah Burke, completed a bespoke renovation on the house.

The restored home now features a fabulous kitchen, spa-like primary suite and 16 skylights that flood the rooms with light.
Outside, a wrap-around deck and stone patio with a shaded pergola offer views of the serene 2.5 acre property, as featured on TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.
A heated pool has also been built into the patio.
Other amenities include a three-car heated garage and a sizeable gym with a sauna to boot.
It has been decorated with a wood, black and white style, giving the home a modern and sleek finish.
Berke is a winner of the Topaz Medallion – the highest honour for architectural education – and the Berkeley-Rupp Architecture Professorship and Prize at the University of California, which is given to an architect who has advanced the position of women in the profession.
She has also received the The American Institute of Architects (AIA) Gold Medal for a lasting impact on the theory and practice of architecture.
And because of her work on the luxury home, in Rye, New York, it won the 2015 Hudson Valley Design Award, as reported by Luxury Property News.
Rye is a coastal town and the perfect stop to escape busy New York and relax by the water during the summer heat.
The peaceful town offers quaint community activities.
The property has now hit the market for $4.95m (£3.85m) and the listing is held by Judy Zhou and Stacey Rechler at Douglas Elliman.
