Located in Old Goodwood, one of our city's most beautiful neighborhoods, the unique home sits on a 1.4 acre lot. As you come up the gated drive you'll notice there is an abundance of parking space. Approaching the front entrance you are greeted by lovely landscaping and four massive travertine columns imported from Turkey. Coming through the custom made iron front doors that were designed by a local artist, you enter into the foyer that houses a one of a kind chandelier, designed and made by interior designer Roy Phelps. Past the foyer is a rotunda with soaring bamboo ceilings. The rotunda is at the center of the open living area and is surrounded by the kitchen and a tv room on one side, and the living room and dining room on the other. The ceilings are supported by lovely slate columns that are repeated throughout. Straight ahead is an elaborate wet bar that hosts a beautiful glass icicle chandelier overhead, custom iron bar glass storage racks, also Roy Phelps originals, a sink, fridge and Kitchenaid ice machine. To the rear of the bar is a sitting area with breathtaking views of the resort style pool and backyard. The Kitchen boasts a large walk in pantry, a huge island with vegetable sink and high end appliances. The spacious utility room hosts the laundry room, an office area with plentiful work space and even a dog shower! The Master Bedroom opens out to a private patio overlooking the pool. It contains a cozy sitting area with a fireplace. The Master Bath has a double vanity with custom mirror, separate walk in shower and a beautiful soaking tub made of ONYX! Upstairs is a large bedroom that is currently being used as a workout room. There are two more bedrooms and a gameroom at the other end of the house. Outside you'll find the heated infinity edge pool, spa and lush landscaping with lighting. This resort style home will make you feel like you are on vacation every day!
