Nestled in a vibrant locale, this exquisitely renovated home is a testament to sophisticated style and tailored comfort. Meticulously built to harmonize with the dynamic life of a young professional embracing a new chapter with family and furry friends, every detail reflects their discerning taste and lifestyle needs.
At first glance, the striking white exterior with a bold black arched entry-door sets the tone for the chic interiors. Inside, Calcutta Viola marble floors and custom arched French doors adorned in black steel make a grand entrance, setting the stage for seamless elegance throughout. Trimless windows, wood liners, and brass hardware offer a refined finish while integrating modern technologies like Creston system controls and Matthew McCormick lighting.
The living spaces exude modern opulence, featuring white-oak herringbone floors and high-contrast walls complemented by exquisite lighting. A custom wet-bar, cleverly concealing a sub-zero wine fridge, seamlessly blends functionality and luxury. Unique elements like the innovative return-air-vent and a metal nano-door leading to the front deck elevate the space’s innovation.
For the pet-loving homeowner, convenience reigns supreme with a dedicated dog-spa shower and a laundry room built around a self-cleaning litter box, complete with a cat-shaped cutout door for easy access. The kitchen boasts floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, Calcutta Oro countertops, and top-of-the-line Wolf/Sub-Zero appliances, exuding both style and efficiency.
Family areas strike a perfect balance between cozy and sophisticated, featuring a window bench, gas fireplace, and a seamlessly integrated Frame-TV. The bathrooms, adorned with luxurious marble and brass fixtures, offer both elegance and practicality, while the gym and primary suite exhibit a perfect fusion of comfort and functionality.
The outdoor spaces are an extension of this refined living, with a cedar deck, outdoor kitchen, and entertainment area, perfect for unwinding or hosting gatherings. The backyard oasis, complete with lush artificial turf and a gravel parking space, is enclosed by a sleek black cedar fence for privacy and sophistication.
This renovated haven effortlessly blends timeless design with modern convenience, catering to the desires of a young professional embracing new beginnings.
