We’ve sold a lot of homes, and we’ve loved as many, but this one here…this is special. There’s something indescribably meditative about pulling into the driveway to see the Majestic Mama herself [Mount Olympus] towering over your sanctuary. From there, it’s just a few modern steps to the heart of your heaven. The hub is a wide-open layout with a magnificently modern kitchen and primary living space that’s boastin’ steel and glass accents, and a charred-wood, double-sided fireplace that serves to anchor and balance the space in all discernible directions. A covered, outdoor patio just off the kitchen feels more like an extension of the chef’s haven: “the perfect spot for supper with pals on a rainy evening, coffee in the morning, or yoga class with your luvuh. The love affair continues with the walnut floors and the sexy main suite…all warm wood, open-concept bathroom, and a private patio with deck, fire pit, and side-yard Zen garden. The lower level is no basement, folks; a gorgeous, built-in desk, bar, and fireplace [continued from upstairs] fill the main living space, and a roomy bedroom and closet are split by a modern bathroom and unbelievable shower. Separate entrances to both the carport and the pool, too. “What’s that,” you say? “A pool?” Why, yes. A kidney-shaped pond on the side of the home that has been the site of many a fantastic gathering. It was added in the 70s, but upgraded a few years back with the rest of the house and entirely relined just last summer. Sum and substance: this here is the stuff of dreams. Pack your bags and call the mover…you’ve found it.
