Dramatic rooflines, natural wood shake siding, stone accents, and expansive Pella windows and doors define the home's distinctive architectural character. Inside, soaring ceilings, exposed pine beams, exposed architectural ductwork, engineered hardwood flooring, stunning designer lighting, and solid-core birch interior doors create an atmosphere of modern sophistication balanced with natural warmth. An oversized, natural stone wood-burning fireplace serves as a dramatic focal point, adding timeless character and inviting warmth to the living space. The extraordinary chef's kitchen showcases handbuilt flush-inset cabinetry with flush-mortised finger pulls, dramatic quartz countertops and full-height backsplashes, authentic live-edge white oak shelving, and top-of-the-line Monogram appliances, including an induction cooktop. Expansive walls of glass flood the home with natural light and seamlessly connect the interior to its peaceful wooded surroundings. Modern conveniences include keyless entry and a three-zone heating and cooling system, providing individualized comfort throughout the home. A conditioned crawlspace with a dedicated dehumidifier further enhances moisture management and year-round comfort. A dedicated outdoor sauna provides a private spa-like retreat, bringing wellness and relaxation into everyday living.
