This sensational modern minimalist leans on the philosophy of the masterful Architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, and is inspired by designs and element concepts from Award Winning Bates and Masi Architecture from East Hampton, New York. The compelling home has 3,659 sq ft of contemporary interior open concept living space and a total area of 5,587 sq ft with 4 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms that include a bonus suite off the detached 2 car garage. Concrete floating steps and floor-to-ceiling windows usher you inside where you are welcomed by the first of endless views of the tantalizing infinity pool with Lake Hartridge as a backdrop across the entire main floor living area. From the herringbone pattern dark French oak wood floors to the frameless doors imported from Italy this piece of art boasts a rare combination of simplicity, intentionality, and architectural brilliance of seamless indoor-outdoor living. The custom chef’s kitchen, imported from Germany, boasts Corian counters, a grand oversized island with waterfall edge, stainless steel appliances, and an invisible fridge, giving the kitchen an impressive open, simple feel. The open concept owner’s suite has a spacious sitting area and a spa-like ensuite bath with a floating Krion Light vanity, an oversized rain shower with glass doors and a separate freestanding tub, both with an intimate view of the lake. Two additional guest bedrooms in the main house each have access to their own ensuite baths and to outdoor areas. You will marvel at the artistic use of natural and artificial light to create dramatic effects from room to room. This is architectural sophistication and elegance at its finest! The secluded 3.95 acre estate is gated from the road. The concrete driveway winds through native vegetation giving way to the luxurious house and detached, 2 car garage with guest suite. Extensive, thoughtfully placed land and hardscaping across the front and back yards with complimenting lighting incite a Zen-like ambience making you feel immediately relaxed. The sprawling, private backyard with sweeping lake views and a 307 feet of shoreline allow for complete privacy. The infinity pool seemingly vanishes into Lake Hartridge! With the progressive depth floor and waterfall edge the pool truly brings the backyard to life. Accessible from the exterior, all mechanicals are uniquely housed in the semi-air conditioned crawl space below the house with a poured concrete floor. NO HOA!!
