An oasis in the heart of Clarks Green, this house has been published and received awards for its innovative design concepts, such as solar heating and passive solar exposure to reduce heating loads. With a private entrance from Highland Avenue, the home faces a terraced lawn with flowering perennials, evergreens and mature landscaping. Walk out from the dining room sliding doors to the bluestone patio, or open the large center French doors and enjoy the expansive garden view, a perfect space for hosting or rejuvenating. High ceilings, center columns and floor-to-ceiling windows greet you at the entry. Laid out on an east-west axis, natural light softly fills all areas of the main living space creating an inviting atmosphere. Hardwood flooring, tile flooring, recessed lighting and custom fixtures set a wonderful backdrop for art, seating arrangements and daily living. Soaring wood-beamed ceilings and panoramic garden views create a space that feels both warm and grand. The inviting kitchen has granite tile flooring, quartz counters, custom cabinetry and stainless steel appliances including a Wolf 6-burner gas range. A shelved walk-in pantry with a window is the perfect storage solution for any home cook. The beamed ceilings continue into the family room with more panoramic views and radiant floor heat. The first floor bedroom suite is spacious, with a walk-in closet, spa-like bathroom and a private terrace. Two more extended suite style bedrooms on the second floor, each with beautiful marble and tile bathrooms. A second floor laundry room offers more convenience. The lower level is a walk-out with a large recreation room, an office or hobby space, an exercise room with rubber flooring, multiple storage rooms and leads into the oversized attached garage. With so many spaces to enjoy inside and out, this exceptional home creates a lasting impression on all who visit.
