About This Home

As of March 2021

Immaculate luxury meets farmhouse charm for the ultimate indoor/outdoor retreat at this custom-built Mediterranean villa. Newly constructed and completely reimagined in an airy, single-level concept, the expansive 4-bedroom estate showcases original exposed-truss cathedral ceilings, a double-sided centerpiece fireplace, and effortless transitions to multiple outdoor living areas. Beyond a gated entry, meticulous landscaping hems a large, circular drive and oversized 2-car garage. A gallery foyer opens to living rooms on each side, one with a plush wet bar and attached office, another open to the gourmet kitchen featuring high-end appliances and disappearing walls of glass to the spacious loggia and yard. The primary suite includes a decadent, spa-like bath and roomy walk-in closet, and two additional junior suites have a bathroom en-suite. Every inch of this home exudes luxury while maintaining an inviting warmth, displaying custom stonework, designer finishes and a soothing color palette throughout. Step outside to entertain around a fire pit in the open courtyard, relax in the shade on a covered wraparound porch, grill and dine al fresco, or escape to the lush, fenced lawn. Though it's just minutes away from the conveniences of town, this incredible estate will quickly whisk you away to another world. Come experience it for yourself, call today for a tour!
