The design
This 2014 custom-built home is located on a large, 9,644-square-foot triangular lot. The heated driveway and heated front stairs mean easier winters without constantly clearing snow. Inside, the home boasts soaring 10-foot ceilings and ample oversized windows that welcome natural light. An additional bedroom, full bathroom and large mudroom are located off the garage. The extra room can be used for guests or visiting family. Outside, the grounds of the home have been professionally landscaped and feature ample outdoor living spaces. The front boasts a wraparound deck, while the backyard has a second deck, hot tub and tiered landscape.
What to love
Every space in this over 5,600-square-foot home has been carefully designed. The kitchen is outfitted with a high-end collection of appliances, spacious counters and a central island with seating. A butler’s pantry off the kitchen includes a second dishwasher, an extra sink and more storage. The living room has plenty of room for different seating, whether around the fireplace or a second layout for conversations. The dining area is a quiet space with a wet bar and access to the deck outside.
Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms await, including the primary bedroom. The primary room is a serene retreat with a fireplace, scenic downtown views, a private balcony, a walk-in closet and an elegant ensuite. The third floor offers truly breathtaking downtown views and plenty of room for a family room, yoga retreat or large bedroom with a private powder bathroom and deck.
The basement is ready to use for relaxation and entertainment. It has a bar, a movie area with a projector and screen, and open space to add more games or a gym setup.
