Located in the heart of Historic Kenwood, this home is exquisitely designed, and masterfully crafted with impeccable attention to detail and a nod to the historic charm and character of the “2020 Neighborhood of The Year”. Built in 2014 using innovative ICF construction (Insulated Concrete Form), this house is not only beautiful, it's extremely efficient and solid. For construction of the exterior walls, concrete is poured 6 inches thick, between 2 pieces of insulating polystyrene foam blocks that are 2.5 inches thick, with horizontally and vertically laid steel rebar throughout the concrete, which is then finished with drywall on the interior and stucco on the exterior, making the walls nearly 12 inches thick. Paired with all low E hurricane rated windows, this house is EXTREMELY energy efficient. The rear french doors are operational from both sides and are hurricane rated, and the front door has a hurricane screen that can be installed, making every egress of the home hurricane rated! The home features a metal roof, the attic has icenine insulation, and there is no exchange of air from the outside of the home by way of vents due to the modern design of the home. Once you walk inside, you will fall in love while you are greeted with a grand 8 foot wide entryway. Your line of sight will go directly into the open concept living area where you will find 10.5 ft ceilings, an open kitchen, and a generously sized living room. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop with downdraft, and an on demand gas water heater. Two of the bedrooms, including the master, feature true en-suite bathrooms, and the 3rd bedroom/office/den features a half-bath with closet. The main living, dining, and kitchen area feature 10.5 ft ceilings, as well as the master bedroom. Throughout the rest of the house the ceilings are 9'4" high. Each closet is professionally custom built. The flooring throughout the main living space is gorgeous hand scraped dark hickory, with porcelain tile in the bathrooms, and some carpet in the bedrooms. The windows in the bedrooms feature professionally installed large plantation blinds. The exterior of the home is just as awe-inspiring as the interior. The focal point of the back yard is the 10x20 salt water pool with solar heating system. The pool is completely surrounded by egyptian marble pavers, as is most of the back yard and back porch. Don't stress maintenance of your property, as it is completely xeriscaped, with no grass. The irrigation system features 4 quadrants, and 3 wells. There is a 2-car carport/open air garage that has an automatic garage door, and is open on 2-sides - thoughtfully built that way to have extra entertaining space if needed. The thought and detail that went into this estate has created one of the finest homes Historic Kenwood has to offer.
