Some homes get there all at once. This one got there the right way, shaped over the years by owners who actually lived in it and kept raising the bar. Every decision was made with intention, and it shows in the details rather than the finishes alone. The front yard sets the tone before you reach the door, with landscaping kept effortless by an automated sprinkler system and low voltage path lighting that brings the grounds to life after dark. A custom-made automatic gate secures the side driveway and rear of the property with keypad access. Inside, the sunken living room with its vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace sets the tone for the rest of the house. The kitchen was made for someone who cooks and entertains, with a large quartzite island, top-of-the-line appliances, a built-in wine fridge, and a walk-in pantry, opening directly into the den. Here is where a dry bar and hardwired surround-sound system make it the room guests never want to leave. This home has two primary suites, each with its own en suite bathroom finished with double marble vanities, and large walk-in showers enclosed in frameless glass. The larger of the two adds a freestanding soaking tub with a custom niche and downstairs features a 3rd guest bedroom with a built in Murphy Bed. The smart home system ties it all together, anchored with fiber 2.5 Gbps and hardwired Ethernet throughout, a wall-mounted iPad control panel, and automation covering lighting, climate, Audio & Video, and security cameras throughout the property. The rear of the property transitions naturally from inside to out, with Sunbrella covered awnings shading the side and rear windows, string lights overhead, and a professional six-burner stainless steel BBQ with searing station, inviting the kind of evenings that stretch past sunset. The detached three-car garage carries the same attention to detail as the rest of the home, finished with Italian porcelain tile flooring, a stainless steel-topped wood workbench spanning nearly its full width and 220-volt service for high-speed vehicle charging or whoever needs the space to do serious work. Homes this thoughtfully curated, where the pride of ownership is felt in every room and every decision, rarely come to market.
