Contemporary Design Highlights

• Refined Street Presence

  The exterior features a calming stucco palette offset by horizontal cedar siding and a custom matching garage door. Layered landscaping and a central water feature draw the eye toward a dramatic modern entry with frosted glass and wood detailing.

• Grand Kitchen for Everyday Living + Entertaining

  The kitchen features rich walnut cabinetry, waterfall-edge countertops, and a commercial-grade Wolf range—all anchored by a long center island with seating for five. Custom backsplash tile adds dimension, while open circulation flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces.

• Natural Materials + Light Everywhere

  Polished brazilian cherry hardwood floors, high ceilings, glass stair railings, and strategic lighting create a sense of grounded openness. Every finish was selected for beauty, resilience, and flow.

• Rear Deck + Yard for Family Time

  Sliding doors open to a custom wood deck with railing and BBQ station—framed by lush grass and modern planting beds. The result is a backyard that lives like an extension of the home.
