Biggest splurge: The sunroom with trim detail, scissor trusses, stone fireplace, 21-foot multi-slide glass door, lights, and porcelain flooring.
From the builder: “This home is an escape from it all. Situated on an extra large private lot, this home is a place for friends and family to gather and relax. The owners wanted a comfortable, warm home that welcomes and invites those who come to stay and linger for conversations and fun. A few of their favorite things are sitting on the front porch with the fire burning. Or, enjoying a morning cup of coffee in the reading room looking out over the pool and Koi pond.” — Bryan Gerrard, Gerrard Builders

This outdoor living area at the front of the house is one of the owners’ favorite spots to curl up — it’s easy to see why.

The sunroom doors retract into the wall. With a heated floor in the, the entire area can be opened up for a total indoor/outdoor experience with the pool and the waterfall pond.

The backyard and outdoor living has multiple dining tables, spots for lounging, a pool, Koi pond, and beautiful landscaping.
