If you are familiar with those names, then you won’t be surprised by the amazing quality and detail.
Set on 3.36 private acres, the 5400 SF flows seamlessly over 3 levels.
The main level was designed to include all the rooms an owner needs; great room, kitchen, office, screened porch, powder room, butler pantry, grilling porch and laundry; leaving the terrace level for recreation and guests and the upper level dedicated to two well-appointed guest suites that enjoy an open tower style relaxation nook surrounded by windows just steps outside their door.
The screened porch is an integral feature of this home and likely to be enjoyed as often as any indoor space. Accessible via French doors on either side of the Great Room fireplace as well as from the kitchen and master, it becomes an extension of your entertainment space. Steps lead down to the yard where an in-ground stone surround spa beckons you to soak in the lake from yet another inspiring location.
The kitchen has become the focal point of most entertaining at the lake. Try as you might, you cannot keep your guests out of the kitchen and in this home, why would you want to?? Bright and open, plenty of space, service bar, prep sink, direct screened porch access, tasteful selection of lighting features, butler pantry that keeps the mess at bay for later, abundant storage, open to Great Room, inviting grilling porch PLUS lake views.
The main level master suite is a sanctuary for well deserving owners. Intricate wood ceiling detail, welcoming separate sitting area overlooking the lake and a sumptuous bath that boasts heated floors. The office and master are situated on either side of an alcove off the Great Room, creating the pleasing ambiance of a master “wing”.
Architect, Keith Summerour is noted for his use of shiplap wood on walls and ceilings. This home highlights such detail in the Great Room ceiling, the horizontal and vertical combination in the office as well as subtle uses throughout the home. Builder, Craig Carver is a specialist in sourcing artisans for custom features such as the stunning iron railings for both upper and lower stairways and the extraordinary fireplace stone and associated handiwork featured in the Great Room, Screened Porch & Terrace Level Family Room.
The terrace level includes a wine-sampling cellar, billiards room that opens to the yard, chic casual family room complete with refreshment bar, stone fireplace and ideal TV viewing. There is a large guest suite on this level, rounding out the four-bedroom overall configuration.
