About This Home
Experience the perfect blend of luxury and warmth in this stunning farmhouse-style home, professionally designed with the highest-quality contemporary finishes. Start with the welcoming front porch, then step into the open-concept family room featuring 10-foot ceilings, exposed beams that create a sense of grandeur and elegance, and a 12-foot Cantina-style door. The chef's kitchen is a masterpiece, featuring modern cabinetry, an oversized waterfall island, a butler's pantry, and high-end Thermador appliances, including a built-in coffee machine and wine cooler. Spa-like bathrooms showcase Porcelanosa tile & Isenberg thermostatic valves. Custom closets include built-in lighting. Level 5 smooth wall finish throughout. European white oak engineered hardwood flooring extends throughout the home. The exterior is equally impressive, enhanced with cedar wood accent walls, James Hardie fiber cement siding, and a sleek, premium metal roof. Thoughtfully designed exterior lighting beautifully highlights this exceptional home. Enjoy all-new landscaping, a new concrete driveway, back patio, and sidewalks, along with elegant iron gates. Spray foam insulation has been installed in both the attic and crawl space. Just minutes from award-winning schools. You simply won't find a better-built home!
