Overview

Exceptional, custom developer-built home in the heart of the Southport Corridor-an extra-wide, extra-deep residence offering an impressive 5BD/4.1BA (easily lives as 6BD) and approx. 6,800 SF* of thoughtfully designed space. Every bedroom features abundant closet storage, most with dual closets or walk-in). Timeless millwork and high-end finishes throughout: marble-accented dining built-ins, elegant wainscoting along the staircase and halls, and two gas fireplaces, one in the living room and a second currently concealed behind the family room built-ins. Chef's kitchen boasts new quartz countertops, custom oversized island, walk-in pantry plus a second large pantry, and a premium appliance package including Viking range, KitchenAid refrigeration, plus refrigerator drawers, Bosch dishwasher, Zephyr hood, second oven, and wine cooler. Mudroom with extensive storage, main-level laundry (plus optional lower-level hookups), tankless water heater, instant hot at the kitchen sink, and filtered water at the kitchen sink.

Comfort is dialed in with two furnaces, two A/C units, and humidifier, plus ceiling fans in all bedrooms and dimmers throughout.
