A Walk through the Residence

Quintessential Spanish Mediterranean styling, potted birds of paradise, an inviting saltillo tile porch and charming French doors develop a grand first impression of the residence.  Inside the gracious entryway, discover the rich hardwoods, heavily textured walls and gently curving arches that unify the entire residence.  An original chandelier, graceful staircase and views to the elegant living and dining rooms ahead create an atmosphere of warmth and calm, drawing family and guests into this exceptional living experience.

The living room is distinguished by broad windows that frame lush views of the rear yard, drawing the outdoors in to this sun filled community area.  An earthy gas log fireplace with an artistic display alcove creates a dramatic focal point for conversation around the fire, while recessed ceiling details and a tasteful ceiling fan round out the allure of this sophisticated gathering area.

The adjoining dining room offers a wonderful setting to further appreciate the lively company of friends.  Also highlighted by large windows, recessed ceiling detailing and a stylish chandelier, the dining room enjoys access to the wide back deck, presenting beautiful outdoor perspectives as well as a fabulous alternative venue for outdoor dining.    

Equally accessible to the back deck, the adjacent gourmet kitchen offers abundant rich cherry cabinetry, sparkling granite countertops, recessed lighting, a double sink and top of the line stainless steel appliances including a Thermadore four-burner range, oven and hood, GE Profile refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher.  Plentiful space for casual dining, in addition to outdoor access to a second barbeque deck add to the exceptional function of this aesthetically pleasing chef’s domain.  

Two bright and comfortable bedrooms also occupy the main level of the residence.  Both of these well-proportioned spaces feature wide windows with lovely views, picture rails and roomy customized closets.  The accompanying main level bath features authentic details that perfectly complement the home’s period character -- colorful Spanish tile wainscoting and surround, hexagonal mosaic floor tile and a quaint pedestal sink.   A built-in medicine cabinet and tub/shower combination complete the practicality of the space.

The harmonious master suite offers a peaceful getaway on the upper level of the home.  Overlooking the idyllic rear yard below, this roomy respite boasts a beautiful bay window seat, an attractive ceiling fan, large customized walk-in closet, lush carpeting and plasma television wiring.  The stylish adjoining bath features a double granite sink, rich oil rubbed bronze fixtures and lighting, a glass stall shower, spacious mirrored linen closet, separate commode and porcelain tile with artistic mosaic accents.

On the ground level of the home, a three-car garage and semi-finished basement offer great flexibility for use as a playroom, family room, workshop or craft room.  Open to creative imagination, this space presents unlimited potential for versatile renovation ideas.  

Continuing to the exterior of the residence, discover a wide, newly refinished deck with plenty of space for al fresco dining.  A shady pergola, charming planter and quaint fountain add European ambiance that extends downstairs to the stone seating area and Spanish tile patio below.   Thriving foliage, soaring pines and expansive lawn envelop this pastoral setting, creating an unparalleled atmosphere for rest and play.
