This striking home showcases a modern aesthetic with its unique front
elevation featuring two parapet walls and single-pitch roof lines in
contrasting light and dark tones. Upon entering, warm colors and
earthy textures create a distinctive atmosphere. The eye-catching clear glass
and black steel front door sets the stage for what lies inside.
Spacious tall ceilings, particularly in the expansive Great Room, allow natural
light to pour in through rows of clerestory windows, enhancing the ambiance.
The design seamlessly merges indoor and outdoor living with massive sliding
doors and floor-to-ceiling windows. The distinctive black lap siding and cut
rock elements flow throughout the home, unifying the spaces.
The Great Room is anchored by elegant dry-stacked cut stone and a marble
fireplace, creating a stylish focal point. A walk-through Butler’s Pantry,
complete with a second refrigerator, leads to an impressive entertainment
area featuring a wet bar and media viewing space, separated by stacking
clear barn doors.
To the right, the owner’s suite offers luxury with two large closets, a hidden
safe room, and a private washer/dryer, alongside a secluded guest suite.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with an oversized covered patio and
outdoor kitchen that transitions into a sunken fire pit area with a waterfall
from the pool. Additional features include a spa, sun shelf, and a dedicated
pet bathing space tucked away in the garage, making this home a perfect
blend of style and functionality for modern living.
