About This Home
As of June 2025Situated on the 18th fairway of the Birnam Wood Golf Club, this fine home is one of famous architect Barry Berkus' final masterpieces. The home offers a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor beauty with lush and always blooming landscaping, a large Koi pond, and expansive sliding glass windows which highlight the spectacular mountain view. The home combines elegance with functionality, offering plenty of walls for art with each room thoughtfully designed to maximize space, natural light, and privacy. Two ensuite guest bedrooms are located down a private hall with sliding doors opening out to a courtyard and koi pond. The kitchen fireplace adds a cozy touch, making it ideal for intimate gatherings or a wonderful spot to enjoy your morning coffee. A fourth fireplace in the den provides... a comfortable place to play games, read a book, or watch a favorite movie. A rear patio, with wide open views of the mountains, offers the perfect backdrop for informal meals, relaxation or socializing in a stylish atmosphere. The detached outdoor entertainment pavilion with a fireplace and wet bar adds to the property's allure, offering a gorgeous spot for gatherings and sitting from morning to evening. The oversized three-car garage and deluxe laundry room are practical features, thoughtfully designed with extra amenities like a half bath, an additional refrigerator, and plenty of storage throughout. The exquisite use of wood and stone flooring throughout the home, coupled with a custom stone exterior, enhances the natural, luxurious aesthetic. And best of all, living in a Barry Berkus designed home is a special experience that connects you to architectural history.
