Description

Some homes are built. Others are thoughtfully composed...Privately nestled among mature trees and thoughtfully positioned to embrace its natural surroundings, this extraordinary residence is a masterclass in design, craftsmanship, and livability. Built just 3.5 years ago and impeccably maintained, every space has been intentionally curated to create a home that feels timeless, sophisticated, and deeply personal. From the moment you enter, wood flooring, custom millwork, elevated ceilings, designer lighting, bespoke built-ins, and custom wood shutters establish a warm yet refined aesthetic. Wood treads with painted risers lead to the second level, where quality finishes continue throughout the hallway and select bedrooms. At the heart of the home, a stunning chef's kitchen blends beauty and function with handcrafted cabinetry, premium finishes, and seamless access to an exceptional walk-through pantry featuring extensive shelving, custom cabinetry, a built-in planning station with whiteboard, and its own window for natural light. Just beyond, a remarkable sunroom retreat offers year-round enjoyment. Surrounded by walls of windows overlooking the private landscape, this inviting space features flush-mounted infrared heaters, a wood-burning fireplace, and the perfect setting for reading, entertaining, creating, or simply unwinding. Custom European wallpapers add texture and sophistication throughout, while hand-selected European sourced stone creates a dramatic focal point around the main-level fireplace. Thoughtfully layered lighting, including picture lights and dimmers, enhances the home's warmth and ambiance. The primary suite offers a true spa experience with heated tile floors, a floor-mounted tub filler, Toto washlet toilet, and carefully curated finishes. Throughout the home, every bathroom features floor-to-ceiling designer tile, custom cabinetry selections, and heated flooring for year-round comfort. Modern conveniences include dual-zone Nest climate controls, extensive Ubiquiti networking, and a fully finished, insulated garage complete with EV charging capability. The lower level was designed with enhanced ceiling heights, creating spacious areas for gathering, recreation, and everyday living. Outdoor living is equally impressive with three distinct entertaining spaces, including a beautiful stone patio centered around a gas fire-pit. The fenced backyard offers privacy, room to play, and a peaceful connection to nature. Completing the property is a storybook playhouse featuring windows, cedar shakes, a sleeping loft, and electrical readiness—an unforgettable space for imagination and adventure. Every finish was selected with purpose. Every detail reflects a commitment to quality rarely found in newer construction. More than a home, this is a carefully curated living experience designed for those who appreciate exceptional architecture, timeless materials, and thoughtful design.
