Designed to the owners exacting standards, this 2004 custom built home is perfection down to every last detail, offering, luxury, efficiency, privacy and beauty. The French Country home sits on 3-acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac that it shares with 3 similar homes in Howard County. The grounds offer privacy and scenic views from every window. The owners attention to detail is first evident as you approach the home up a landscaped slate path, embellished with architectural wall plaques. After dark, the outside of the home is beautifully illuminated by photo sensitive landscape lighting enhancing security. The soaring beams at the front entrance beautifully frame the oversized hand-carved front door from New Mexico. Once inside, the eye is immediately drawn to the 10-foot high ceilings and wall of windows (UV protected), that drench the home with sunlight and showcase the lush grounds and patio beyond. The hub of this home is the large great room which opens to the gourmet eat-in kitchen. A wood burning stone fireplace, wall of built in shelves, and 5-channel surround sound home theater create an ideal atmosphere to relax and entertain. The kitchen will please any chef, with a center island, breakfast bar, and custom walk-in pantry with a second refrigerator. For more formal occasions, the formal dining room with tray ceiling offers a unique entertaining experience. The luxe owners suite features a tray ceiling, extra-large walk-in custom-designed closet, and spacious, spa-like bath. The remaining bedrooms, both en-suite, are situated on the opposite side of the house to offer a true sense of retreat. A handsome private study, located off the front entry, is the perfect place to work from home, or to relax on the large built-in window seat. This single-story home is special not only for its wonderful flow and light, but for its fine craftsmanship and materials. The floors are random-width hardwood, tumbled marble, or beautiful ceramic tile. The ceilings are all 10-foot high or cathedral and feature stately beams. All light fixtures have been chosen for their exceptional design. There are many beautiful accents to discover, such as the antique pantry door, stained glass window, and unique niches to showcase art. On a more practical side, this home was built for energy efficiency. It offers solar hot water and PV. The average monthly electric bill is less than $125 due to extra insulation. There is plenty of storage space in the oversized two car garage, 3,400 sq ft unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings, and exterior lawn equipment storage room. The home is equipped with a security system and an automatic backup generator.
