Property Description
With defining architectural elements and a profound connection to its landscape, this recently transformed mid-century residence unfolds as a series of light-filled spaces where every room feels beautifully curated. Enveloped by gardens conceived by Garrett Carlson and Mark Levine, the property offers a rare sense of calm, with mature greenery, sculptural plantings, and carefully framed sight lines creating an atmosphere that feels worlds away from the city beyond.Venetian plaster introduces a warm, tactile palette that continues throughout, while expansive walls of glass dissolve traditional boundaries, allowing the surrounding gardens to become an integral part of the architecture. The principal living room is centered around a sculptural bronze mirrored fireplace, its generous scale extending effortlessly outdoors through disappearing glass. The entertaining spaces transition naturally from one to the next. The kitchen is appointed with custom cabinetry, stone surfaces, a Wolf range, and a complete suite of Miele appliances. An integrated display for glassware and a bespoke bar create a natural focal point before opening to a more relaxed family living area. Nearby, a dedicated wine lounge with its own full bath and thoughtfully positioned laundry room reinforce the home's functionality. Privately positioned, the primary suite continues the home's dialogue with nature, opening directly onto the gardens through walls of glass. A dramatic two-level dressing room offers boutique-like proportions, while the bath introduces richly veined Italian onyx vanities, a rainfall shower, and a palette selected to evoke the atmosphere of a private wellness retreat. A spacious secondary suite and an adaptable third room provide flexibility for guests, an office, fitness studio, or creative space depending on lifestyle. Outside, the grounds are thoughtfully arranged around a pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, dining terrace, and fire lounge, all surrounded by layered landscaping that creates exceptional privacy. Completed between 2020 and 2023, the home's extensive renovation reached well beyond aesthetics, incorporating upgraded mechanical systems, new HVAC, and solar infrastructure to complement its architectural transformation. The result is a residence where timeless mid-century principles have been thoughtfully reinterpreted through contemporary craftsmanship, creating a home that feels enduring, highly livable, and quietly exceptional.
