Stunning, custom-designed private gated estate. Originally custom designed and built-in 2004. Recently reimagined in an exclusive collaboration with Potthast Design. The new design lends itself to the contemporary Mediterranean with high-quality appointments and attention to detail throughout. This home is truly a beauty and was designed with a central kitchen which creates the ultimate in entertaining and becomes the home’s premier hangout. The size and scale make this kitchen a chef’s dream. It was designed by a well-known chef and graduate of The Culinary Institute of America. His experience as a chef and restaurant owner who has personally designed hundreds of kitchens was incredibly valuable in making this kitchen unlike any other you will find. Unique features include a double island. The first is the chef’s island designed for cooking and prepping. This island is strategically located next to the commercial-grade gas cooktop and double oven. The chef’s island can also comfortably accommodate 2 guests for those who want to be up close to the action. The second island is the social island. This island is a nearly 8-foot island that incorporates expansive seating areas that leave enough room for six-plus guests to comfortably eat and socialize. Many recent kitchen enhancements include truly custom cabinetry made by a European Cabinet Maker with 25 years of experience. The solid wood doors were curated from an abundance of different designs. Four slabs of marble with double mitered edges for both islands with Calcutta Marble Backsplash. New high-end chef quality appliances. Nearly 3/4 acre homesite with inviting outdoor surroundings offering an abundance of green space and nearly 7,000 square feet of living area. 6 bedrooms, 6 full baths, 1 half bath, dining, formal living room and family rooms, 2 large laundry rooms (one on each level with additional storage), and an oversized 3-car garage, plus an impressive 1,000 sqft 2-story bonus room that could serve many purposes. 4 of the secondary bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and large walk-in closets. Enjoy serene views & privacy in your backyard oasis with a heated & chilled pool, spa with waterfall feature, huge grassy yard, playground, outdoor shower, pool bath, and covered dining area. Ideal to enjoy outdoor activities from the security and privacy of the home. Space is plenty large for all sports to be enjoyed, a playground, a trampoline, or simply get out and release some energy.
