The rain plinks against the metal roof, and you can almost smell the ocean breeze as you sip your afternoon tea on the rear Veranda... Located in the leafy Fashion Square neighborhood, this designer home has been re-imagined with a vintage feel, yet fashioned for a modern lifestyle. Most evident, is the quality. From the rich wood floors, to the plantation style windows that encircle the home flooding it with natural light. A sleek fireplace anchors the large beamed ceiling living room and leads to a family style kitchen and dining area. This, a natural gathering place; with built in bar/service nook, rare stone counters, a vintage Okeefe and Merritt range, stainless refrigerator and contemporary lighting and fixtures. The private wing has a laundry room, 2 large guest bedrooms and an elegant bath with hex tile floor, marble sink and swaths of subway tile. And then, the master. Reminiscent of a Pacific Island getaway, it angles away, steps-down and then opens; with a vaulted plank and beam ceiling, a wall of windows, walk-in closet and a spa-quality bathroom with large shower, soaking tub and dual sinks built into a sublime mid-century cabinet. Both the dining and master open to the huge rear veranda. Large covered areas access the yard, a two car garage and an accessory building, perfect as an office or gym. All secured by an electric gate. In addition to all this style, are the upgrades; whole house insulation, solar assisted water heater, Ring bell system, and hi-E HVAC.
