Property Description

What a masterpiece! This breathtaking, exquisite home nestled on 0.783 acres displays a gorgeous oak tree and is located at the end of a quiet street in an established, private neighborhood. The ultra-high-end construction designed by Jeff Gossen with a meticulously detailed and custom-built design by Edson Davis, is the epitome of indoor/outdoor luxury living designed with entertaining in mind. A gorgeous custom entry door greets you upon entering the very private courtyard showcasing a sparkling pool with a waterfall feature, a double wall fountain, travertine floors, Juliet balcony, outdoor kitchen, and a loggia with a fireplace; a truly luxurious sanctuary with landscape drawn by the landscape artist Lue Svenson and all gates custom designed by Metalhead (Randy Leblanc).You will also find a folding, walk-through, glass window wall to the loggia offering additional indoor/outdoor living. Beautiful floor to ceiling Argon windows flood the spaces with an abundance of natural light. This home is exquisitely outfitted with high end finishes, distinct chandeliers throughout the home, (you can lower the stairwell chandelier at a click of a button), designer wallpaper, triple crown molding throughout, long-plank pine flooring, custom cabinetry by Rene Mouton and custom finished doors by Milfred Perez. Upon entry into the home, you will find a beautiful staircase and full bar area with a wine cooler, sink, and a great accent wall. The elegant formal living/dining room features an impressive double fireplace, custom plaster, plaster bishop's cap and stunning views of the pond. The kitchen shows off the exquisite plaster barrel ceiling, hand painted backsplash tiles, top of the line Thermador appliances (including a fridge), and a large island.
