Overview

Description

This elegant home rests along WaterColor's quiet northern edge, directly bordering a protected state park and the peaceful pine forest where deer often wander. Designed by architect Dawn Thurber at the owners' request, the home blends her signature touches, such as eyebrow windows and an upper gallery, with a more traditional layout of defined, intimate rooms rather than today's open-concept trend. A welcoming entrance hall leads to the formal living room, framed by glass double doors and overlooking a charming pocket park. Every window along the home's exterior offers calming views of the state forest. A wide hallway opens to a cozy media room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, flanked by built-ins and a large picture window highlighting the natural surroundings.

Supplements: At the back of the three-bed, three-and-a-half-bath home, a bright professional kitchen features granite counters, ceiling-height cabinetry, and a generous central island with a butcher-block top and seating for family and guests. The formal dining room sits between the kitchen and living room, perfectly placed to frame the serene forest backdrop. ...
