Property Description
Built in 2006, this home boasts numerous updates and thoughtful details. A newly installed roof (2024), HVAC system (2018), and hot water heater (2022) provide peace of mind, while a hurricane fabric system and Westinghouse gas generator offer added protection. Inside, the home is a showcase of elegance, with cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors, and crown molding.
The kitchen is a chef's dream, offering ample counter space with granite countertops, a gas stove, and built-in pantry. Direct access from the kitchen to the serene garden adds to the charm. The flexible, cathedral-ceiling flex room with a two-way gas fireplace provides versatile living options, and the living room, with its grand cathedral ceiling, opens seamlessly into the kitchen/dining area for easy entertaining.
However, it's the home's outdoor spaces that truly set it apart. The meticulously designed gardens and outdoor living areas are a true highlight of this property. The Garden House mirrors the style of the main house and is seamlessly integrated into the landscape. A full irrigation system powered by a Pentair well pump with auto-timers, drip lines and rain barrels ensure that your garden stays lush and vibrant with minimal effort. Stunning Outdoor Spaces:
The property features a variety of themed garden rooms, each with its unique charm.
A welcoming front porch with a wall of jasmine sets the tone for the enchanting front yard.
The front yard includes an azalea garden, accented by camellias and other plants. Also, a moonlight garden with benches, a birdbath and fragrant plants in white.
The side yard has a small rose garden. This sweet and intimate space is home to a beautiful pale pink New Dawn climber, along with a vibrant assortment of roses in shades of pink, white, yellow, and lavender. On the opposite side of the house lives a large southern magnolia.
Off the master bedroom is the tropical garden. With a serene pond that features water lilies, Siberian iris, and arrowhead, the tropical garden provides a calming oasis. The area is enhanced by stepping stones, a palm tree, hibiscus, canna, and other lush plantings. A 6' x 8' enclosed outdoor shower with a bench offers the perfect spot to relax after enjoying the garden. A 164 sq. ft. deck off the master bedroom offers a private retreat, while a picturesque pier crosses over a soothing waterfall, adding to the tranquility of the space.
Off the screen porch with cathedral ceiling, the expansive 456 sq. ft. back deck is equipped with a pergola and built-in benches, making it the perfect space for outdoor dining or relaxation.
The back deck looks out to the fall garden. This area, designed with seasonal color changes in mind, features trees and shrubs that transform with the seasons, such as a tupelo tree and witch hazel. The space also includes a fire pit, making it ideal for fall evenings.
The Japanese garden is a peaceful retreat beneath a live oak. This garden invites you to lay in a hammock and gaze up at the branches of the neighboring oaks. The surrounding beds, planted with fatsia, mahonia, Japanese maple, and other plants, offer year-round beauty.
The kitchen garden is located just off the kitchen, the travertine patio surrounded by herbs offers the ideal spot for al fresco breakfasts. This herb garden includes curry, rosemary, thyme, oregano, chives, fennel, and mint, while four raised beds and side beds provide space for climbing plants, asparagus, and fruit-bearing plants such as strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries. The garden also features a variety of flowering trees and shrubs, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
More to Discover:
This property also boasts a number of mature trees, shrubs, perennials, bulbs and ground covers creating a colorful and fragrant environment throughout the year. Other fruit bearing plants such as loquat, pineapple guava and fig and razzmatazz grapes sprinkle the property.
For added privacy, a six-foot treated wood fence surrounds the property, offering seclusion and tranquility.
In Summary:
This exceptional home offers an abundance of indoor and outdoor features, from the beautifully designed interior with high ceilings and hardwood floors to the meticulously maintained gardens and outdoor living spaces. Whether you're relaxing in the tropical garden, enjoying a meal on the back deck, or soaking in the beauty of the moonlight garden, this property offers an unparalleled blend of luxury and nature. It is truly a one-of-a-kind sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
