As you enter, you’re welcomed by soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and a mix of rich hardwood floors and wool carpeting that immediately set a tone of understated luxury. Rich wood doors and millwork lend character and warmth throughout the home. A dream kitchen straight out of a Nancy Meyers movie sets the tone for this home’s heart and soul. Bathed in natural light pouring through a vaulted ceiling and dramatic skylight, the space is as charming as it is practical—a chef’s delight— equipped with professional-appliances and plenty of room to create. Just off the kitchen, the family room invites relaxation with its floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace and direct access to the backyard. A few steps away, an elevated pub-style bar offers a handsome setting for entertaining. A room meant for gathering—the formal dining room is a showstopper, with 17' ceilings and dramatic picture windows that flood the space with natural light. Outside, the grounds feel lush and alive. Mature vegetation surrounds you—citrus trees, hydrangeas, roses, and more—framing every path and corner in green.
