Compelling contemporary home truly exemplifies a modern approach to elegant design. Steel, glass, stone and wood are artistically combined to create this bespoke residence. A stunning floating staircase stretches the homes 3 levels and anchors the main levels open concept design; boasting a wide footprint flooded with light from a three-story corner window creating a design focal point from both interior and exterior perspectives. New in 2020, a incredibly well-designed, efficient and well-equipped O'Brien Harris kitchen inspires to bring the chef out in us all; and opens to the family room designed with a wall of custom millwork cabinetry, wet bar and opening to an exceptional porch with fireplace, ceiling mounted commercial heaters and heated floors for year round use....and adjacent to a well-outfitted outdoor kitchen. A light-filled primary suite with a wall of windows, balcony, dual walk-in closets and an impeccably detailed bathroom featuring radiant floors, oversize custom vanities, a large wet room with overhead rain shower, dual shower heads, handheld and body sprays. A large 2nd floor gallery connects three additional bedrooms with ensuite or jack-n-jill baths and walk-in or custom built-in closets. With tree-top views the third level features an amazing in-law/teen/nanny suite with a light-filled sitting room, bedroom, bath and one of a number of rooftop decks. The sleek lower level is an entertainer's dream with luxe temperature-controlled wine cellar, spacious family room, glass enclosed fitness area, spa bath with steam shower and sauna and a "play pit" for the kids with a 1/2 court basketball venue and climbing wall. A custom elevator reaches all levels, while a geothermal heat pump makes use of renewable heat within the earth to produce effective, efficient heating and cooling. This home's attention to detail and nuanced balance of architecture and style is truly a pleasure to show.
