Overview

Modern architecture at its most inspired. This extraordinary residence, designed by renowned architect Louis Cherry and refined by a celebrated interior designer, redefines what modern living can be. Every surface, sightline, and material choice tells a story of artistry, precision, and balance. Set across three levels, the home offers 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a seamless integration of interior and exterior spaces all conceived to maximize light, flow, and connection to nature. The exterior blends stucco and concrete with warm Brazilian wood accents, creating striking curb appeal and timeless modern character. Step through the front door, and you're greeted by sweeping ceilings with exposed hardwood beams, walls of glass that draw in natural light, and a palette of sustainably sourced materials chosen for beauty and longevity. Custom millwork defines every room. Built-in cabinetry, architectural shelving, and thoughtfully concealed storage that makes every space feel intentional and serene. The main level is anchored by a stunning chef's kitchen outfitted with Thermador appliances, dual dishwashers, expansive quartz surfaces, and bespoke cabinetry. It flows seamlessly to the screened porch and Brazilian wood deck, extending the living space outward and capturing the lush privacy of the backyard. Also on the main level you will find the primary suite which is a true retreat featuring a private balcony overlooking the trees, heated floors in the spa-inspired bath, and large windows that frame the natural surroundings. Upstairs, a loft lounge offers a flexible space for reading, relaxing, or hanging out. Three additional bedrooms are found on the upstairs level, one with an ensuite bathroom and two which share a Jack and Jill bath. Downstairs, the lower level provides even more flexibility and space to relax. This area is perfectly set up as a media room, replete with a bar area featuring a built-in wine fridge. The lower level also offers a guest room and full bath with heated floors, easy access to the covered patio, and views of the gorgeous, private backyard. Every aspect of this home reflects craftsmanship and intention, from the placement of each window to the precision of every built-in. Natural light transforms throughout the day, animating textures and surfaces in a way that feels alive and ever-changing. This is truly more than a house, it's a living work of art.
