If you are a fan of the Botanic Gardens, then you will love this home which sits just under 2-acres of thousands of constantly blooming perennials & vegetation each blossoming at different times of the season providing you with beauty throughout the year. As you enter the Dramatic double-story foyer you are surrounded with stately elegance. On one side, you'll see a custom stairwell, look up to see the Schonbek Chandelier & below your feet is a stone floor with inlays of custom blue Bahia, onyx & lapus lazuli all carefully selected precious stones which have been assembled by hand in a puzzle-like fashion creating a one of a kind work of art. This craftsmanship is in several areas T/O this home. The chef's kitchen has top of the line professional appliances including, a steam oven, warming drawer, Viking professional hood accented with Blue Bahia Granite counters & stunning lighted cabinetry with a grand Island & seating. One of my favorite areas in the kitchen is the cafe barista bar which fills the kitchen with the most amazing aroma of espresso brewing.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
