Welcome to 52 Butterwood Alley, an architectural masterpiece designed by renowned architect Gary Justiss, embodying the essence of Bermuda and Guatemalan courtyard living. This iconic 4,975 square foot residence is nestled at the southern end of Lake Maryland, offering breathtaking views of the neighborhood's distinguished architecture, scenic rooftops, and the tranquil backdrop of protected nature preserves. As you approach this stunning 4 bedroom plus bunk home, you are greeted by masterfully crafted woodwork by EF San Juan, featuring wormy oak accents that create a unique and inviting atmosphere. The home's third-story tower room provides an elevated vantage point for entertaining, practicing yoga, or simply enjoying serene evenings by the fireplace. The seamless transition to the outdoor roof terrace invites you to stargaze in the comfort of your own haven. Access the property via the famed Seagarden walk pedestrian path, where monumental louvered sliding doors lead into the private courtyard. This outdoor oasis features a summer kitchen, pizza oven, dining banquet, and a refreshing swimming pool - perfect for gatherings and relaxation. Stepping inside, the first level showcases cascading walls of Venetian plaster throughout the kitchen, dining, living areas, and the primary suite. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, adorned with wormy oak details and a grotto niche bathtub lined with lava tile. Nestled between the courtyard and a separate private courtyard with its own fireplace, this suite allows for an abundance of natural light and gentle breezes when the sliding doors are open. The gourmet kitchen is a culinary delight, featuring top-of-the-line Subzero appliances and a well-appointed scullery with a secondary refrigerator. Its thoughtful design fosters connectivity with the dining and living rooms, ensuring a welcoming space for guests. Ascending to the second floor, you'll discover a cozy common area, complete with built-in shelves and a charming nook with wormy oak ceiling ideal for leisurely naps or quiet reading. This level also hosts three guest suites, including a detached casita for special visitors, a bunk room, and a versatile multipurpose room perfect for movie nights or creative endeavors. Each guest room can be accessed through the main home or via an external staircase, providing convenience and privacy. Finally, guests are invited to the third level, where the home's iconic tower awaits. This unmatched space features Venetian plaster, a two-way fireplace, and vaulted wormy oak ceilings. Slider doors open to the expansive roof terrace, creating the ultimate interactive entertainment venue.
