Step through the front door and the home immediately opens up around you. A bright, soaring 18 ft. foyer draws your eye upward, with tall windows bringing in abundant natural light and an open staircase adding architectural drama. From there, the home naturally leads you into the spacious kitchen, dining and family areas—a welcoming gathering space where cooking, dining and relaxing all happen together. In the kitchen, a generous island becomes the natural gathering spot for casual meals or conversation, while abundant cabinetry and a large walk-in pantry keep everything within easy reach. A highly desirable feature of this plan is the 4th bedroom and full bath downstairs, perfectly private for guests, a home office or multi-generational living. Upstairs the home gives you even more room to spread out. A spacious game room creates a second living area for movie nights, hobbies or simply relaxing away from the main gathering space. Then comes the primary suite, where the little luxuries start adding up. The spacious bedroom feels like a retreat of its own, but open the closet doors and there’s another surprise: two separate boutique-style walk-in closets, each designed with plenty of shelving and storage. Shoes, handbags, folded clothes and everyday essentials finally have a place of their own—and perhaps best of all, so does each of you. And just when you think you’ve found your favorite feature, open the door to your private balcony with a peaceful water view. Imagine starting the morning here with coffee, listening to the fountain or ending the evening with a glass of wine as the day winds down. And when you want to enjoy the outdoors downstairs, covered outdoor living gives you another place to sit back and take in the view. Two outdoor living spaces. Two well-appointed closets. A private primary balcony. Peaceful water views. This isn’t simply a villa with a view—it’s a home designed around enjoying it.
