Description

A connection to the outdoors is ever-present at this stunning contemporary. With
countless majestic trees and mossy boulders, the forest-like setting is at once inspiring
and humbling. Soak up the serenity beside the pool, completely redone in 2017, or from
within the airy home with an abundance of oversized glass doors and clerestory
windows beneath high, vaulted ceilings sheathed in wood. Rooms are impressively
sized beginning with the Great Room. Whether eating, cooking or cleaning up, you'll
enjoy...A connection to the outdoors is ever-present at this stunning contemporary. With
countless majestic trees and mossy boulders, the forest-like setting is at once inspiring
and humbling. Soak up the serenity beside the pool, completely redone in 2017, or from
within the airy home with an abundance of oversized glass doors and clerestory
windows beneath high, vaulted ceilings sheathed in wood. Rooms are impressively
sized beginning with the Great Room. Whether eating, cooking or cleaning up, you'll
enjoy the very best views from the kitchen, where a corner breakfast nook like no other
supplements larger dining areas. Custom built-ins follow the lines of the architecture in
the family room also featuring a Scandinavian-style fireplace. Two upper bedrooms
share a bath, while a guest suite is easily accessible on the main level along with the
expanded primary suite. This private wing is devoted to organization and self-care with
separate closets, a dressing room, sauna and 2 baths! Outside, stone patios and paths
were reset, siding was re-stained and roofing was replaced where needed, leaving an
empty to-do list for new owners.
