About This Home
As of June 2013A lightly lived-in, lake-front Villa responsibly constructed by a renowned local builder in the inviting Italian style features only the finest materials, evidenced by a terra cotta tile roof, and greenest systems, like geothermal heating and cooling. The most impressive feature, however, is the unmarred view of Carnegie Lake showcased throughout a modern sun-splashed interior. Through tall arched doors, past a floating staircase, the central gathering room gives way to an expansive terrace high above the water. To one side are his and her offices. To the other, dining and family areas are open to the Viking-equipped kitchen gleaming with glass tile and polished granite. A service corridor is hidden from view. Below, a guest suite and gym join a theater room with access to the loggia and lawn leading to a dock. Four upper bedroom suites include two masters with marble baths. Custom closets, radiant heat and plantation shutters revealing water views further the sense of a luxury getaway every day.
