Designed with care & attention to detail, the residence offers a balance of elegance, comfort, & everyday livability. Framed by mature trees & thoughtful landscaping, the charming craftsman facade welcomes you with a rocking chair front porch, warm wood-paneled ceiling, and blue front door. Stepping into the home, the foyer with its high ceilings & soft, neutral palette amplifies the sense of openness & natural light. The open floor plan continues this feeling, seamlessly connecting the living room, kitchen, and formal dining room for easy flow. The living area is anchored by a cozy seating arrangement centered around a stunning 12-ft. tall Travertine gas-log fireplace with custom, local Driftwood mantle, creating a striking focal point. Telescoping sliding glass doors extend the space outward to a screened-in porch, enhancing indoor-outdoor living. Just beyond, the kitchen is both functional & inviting, featuring a large navy-blue island with bar seating, pendant lighting, & clear sightlines into the living area. Designed to impress even the most discerning home chef, the kitchen blends high-end finishes with thoughtful functionality. Premium Thermador appliances take center stage, including a 36'' range paired with a vented hood, while a SS farmhouse sink and warm brass hardware add both style & sophistication. Custom cabinetry is elevated with tailored drawer inserts for spices and utensils, creating an organized workspace. Just beyond, a dry bar with wine refrigerator & glass-front cabinetry, complete with interior lighting, adds an extra layer of refinement. A spacious walk-in pantry with wood shelving & dedicated appliance shelf ensures everything has its place. RO water filtration system at both the kitchen sink and refrigerator offers added peace of mind. The 1st floor primary suite offers a private retreat, designed for comfort & convenience. Motorized shades frame the windows, while a seating area creates the perfect space to unwind. Dual closets, each outfitted with custom shelving and drawer systems, provide exceptional storage (with one offering direct access to the laundry room for added ease of living!) The en-suite bath is equally refined, featuring a double vanity with built-in makeup counter & discreet in-drawer electrical outlets for hidden hair tool use. A zero-entry, oversized shower with striking waterfall tile detail completes the space, delivering that spa-like experience. An additional bedroom downstairs, currently being used as an office, offers convenient access to a full bathroom, ideal for guests or flexible living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath, offering a comfortable & functional layout. One of the bedrooms was intentionally designed to be oversized, providing exceptional versatility and currently serves as a media and fitness space. Also on this level, a huge walk-in attic with spray-foam insulation offers impressive, temperature-controlled storage while adding an extra layer of structural efficiency to the home. Outdoors, the expansive screened-in porch offers space for relaxing, complete with shades for added privacy & sun protection. A paver patio along the side yard offers a built-in gas-log fire pit area for lounging, while the nearby grilling area includes a natural gas stub for easy connection. Even the practical spaces shine: the laundry room offers cabinetry, a utility sink, and quartz counters. The 2-bay, 2-car garage offers a storage closet, epoxy coated floors, 220-volt outlet for EV charging & an outlet to be used in conjunction with a separate generator system. Thoughtful storage options throughout including a drop zone off the garage entry and a large hall closets. Throughout the residence, you'll find high-end flooring, custom plantation shutter window treatments, stylish tile options in all bathrooms, heavy trim & molding upgrades, and dimmer switches in all rooms.
