Exterior View

Stepping up the winding stone walkway, you’re greeted by a home that could have been plucked from a European countryside.

There’s a turreted entry, rustic stone, and old-world charm everywhere you look, paired with lush landscaping that draws you in before you even reach the door.

This isn’t just a house; it’s a three-level retreat designed for lively gatherings and quiet escapes, with something interesting to discover in every corner.

Let’s walk through all three levels and take a closer look at how daily living comes together in this beautiful home.

Specifications:

  • 6,465 Heated S.F.
  • 3-4 Beds
  • 3.5+ – 4.5+ Baths
  • 2 Stories
  • 3 Cars

The Floor Plans:

Foyer

Once you step through the arched front door, you find yourself in a spacious foyer, framed by the curve of a staircase and filled with natural light.

The classic lines and formal symmetry immediately give the home a refined feel. What I notice first is how the foyer keeps sightlines open into the dining room and the grand room, making the whole space feel both impressive and welcoming.

Dining Room

To your right, the dining room sits at the front of the house, ready for holidays and celebrations.

The bay window brings in soft sunlight, and its shape lets you arrange a table that feels just formal enough.

I think this spot works well for both big dinner parties and smaller family meals, especially since it’s so close to the kitchen and the main living areas.

Study

Just off the foyer and behind double doors, you’ll find a generously sized study. The proportions are comfortable, and its placement lets you step away from household activity while still feeling connected to the main flow.

With views out toward the front gardens, this is an ideal spot for work, reading, or quiet reflection.

I appreciate how this room has just enough separation from everything else.

Powder Room (Front)

Near the foyer and close to the staircase, there’s a powder room. It’s conveniently located for visitors and easy to access from the entertaining areas, without being too exposed to the main living spaces.

This arrangement is always a welcome convenience for both guests and hosts.

Grand Room

Walking deeper inside, the grand room stands out with its generous size and central location.

It connects visually to both the back lanai and the kitchen area, making it a natural place for family to gather or relax after dinner.

Tall ceilings and wide openings help it feel even larger. I think the openness here is key, allowing for easy movement between the main spaces.

Screened Lanai

Off the grand room, French doors open to a screened lanai. This is the kind of spot you could use almost year-round, free from bugs and shaded from the heat.

Imagine casual breakfasts, evening drinks, or just curling up with a book. This space brings the outdoors in while keeping you comfortable.

The view over the backyard and landscaping adds a calming vibe to the whole rear of the home.

Master Suite

On the left wing of the main level, the master suite feels private and luxurious.

You enter through a small vestibule, which helps buffer noise from the main living areas.

Inside, the master bedroom is spacious, with enough room for a sitting area by the window.

This suite is clearly set up as a tranquil retreat, separated from the activity of the kitchen and family zones.

Sitting Area

A cozy sitting area is included within the master suite. Positioned near windows, it’s an inviting nook for reading or enjoying morning coffee.

These smaller relaxing spots within larger rooms give the home character and flexibility.

Master Bath

Moving into the master bath, you’ll find dual vanities, a soaking tub, a separate shower, and a private water closet. There’s a real sense of privacy and space here that goes well beyond the basics.

Walk-In Closets

Two separate walk-in closets complete the master suite, making it easy for both partners to have their own space. I always appreciate when closet space is a major feature, and here, it definitely is.

Powder Room (Side)

On this side of the house, you’ll also find another powder room, accessible from the main hallway. Multiple powder rooms on the main floor make the house easy to entertain in and keep guests out of private areas.

Kitchen

The kitchen sits at the center of daily living, and this one is both spacious and well-organized.

There’s a big central island for prepping food, doing homework, or enjoying casual meals. With two separate pantries—a main pantry and a “dirty pantry” for messier tasks—you get all the storage and staging space you could want.

This setup helps keep the kitchen itself clean and open for socializing or hosting.

Wine Room

Right next to the kitchen, a dedicated wine room is tucked in for easy access. If you collect bottles or just like to have a few favorites on hand, this feature brings a bit of luxury to everyday life.

Mud Room

On the way to the garage, you pass through a mud room. This is where shoes, coats, and bags land, keeping clutter away from the main house.

There are benches and hooks for easy organization, which I find essential for busy families or anyone who enjoys outdoor activities.

Dirty Pantry

Connected to both the kitchen and mud room, the dirty pantry serves as a hardworking buffer zone. It’s the perfect place to handle messy meal prep or baking out of sight, and I think it’s especially handy when you’re entertaining.

Family Room

At the far right rear of the main level, the family room is placed for privacy and a sense of retreat.

With windows on three sides, sunlight pours in throughout the day. This room is set apart enough to be a media room, playroom, or casual hangout.

Its location near the kitchen and breakfast nook means you’re always close to snacks or conversation.

Breakfast Area

Between the kitchen and family room, a breakfast area offers a relaxed spot for casual meals.

Morning light streams in, making this a great place to start the day. I like that you can step right out to the screened lanai from here, so taking meals outdoors is easy when the weather is nice.

Pantry

Separate from the dirty pantry, the main pantry is close to the kitchen’s main work area. Having this kind of dedicated storage really helps a large household stay organized.

Porch

On the front corner, before you reach the mud room, there’s a smaller porch. It’s just right for packages, quick greetings, or a shaded spot to pause as you come and go.

4-Car Garage

Attached to the main house with direct entry through the mud room, the four-car garage is oversized and ready for everything from vehicles to bikes and storage. For a home this size, having plenty of parking and storage away from the living areas is both practical and necessary.

Stairs to Upper Level

Head up the main staircase, found just off the foyer, to reach the private bedroom quarters and bonus spaces above.

Open to Below

At the center of the upper level, open hallways and railings overlook the grand room below. This design keeps light moving through both levels and helps connect the floors visually.

Suite 2

The first bedroom upstairs, Suite 2, is large and private with its own walk-in closet and easy access to a full bath. Its location at the end of the hall gives it a tucked-away feel, perfect for guests or older children who want more privacy.

Laundry Room

Upstairs laundry is a real time-saver, especially when most bedrooms are on this floor. Its placement near Suite 2 makes weekend chores much easier.

Suite 3

Moving across the open landing, you’ll find Suite 3. With its curved wall of windows and full bath, this room feels bright and open.

Double closets provide plenty of storage, making it a flexible option for siblings or long-term guests.

Suite 4

Suite 4 sits opposite Suite 2 and offers plenty of space, complete with its own walk-in closet and full bath. The separation between bedrooms on this floor gives everyone a bit more peace and quiet, which I find really appealing.

Bonus Room

On the far right wing of the upper level, the bonus room is truly impressive.

Spanning the depth of the house, it comes with its own bar and access to a covered balcony.

This is where you might host game nights, movie marathons, or set up a gym or playroom.

I love the flexibility here.

Bar

Tucked into the bonus room, the bar adds a layer of convenience for entertaining. Having a dedicated space for drinks and snacks means this room can easily shift from a kids’ hangout to an adult gathering spot.

Covered Balcony

The bonus room opens onto a covered balcony, which is perfect for fresh air, potted plants, or just unwinding with a view. Because it’s covered, you can enjoy being outdoors no matter the weather.

Baths and Closets

Each upstairs suite has its own bath and plenty of closet space, making this level comfortable for family and overnight guests. The layout is set up to ensure everyone’s privacy and comfort, even with a full house.

Stairs to Lower Level

Back at the main staircase, you’ll find steps leading down to the home’s lower level, where there’s another flexible-use area.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 17802LV

Rec Room

The lower level opens up to a large rec room, perfect for everything from ping-pong tables to home theaters.

The space is bright thanks to several windows, and it’s far enough from the main living areas that noise won’t travel.

I see this as the ideal spot for messy crafts, workout equipment, or anything else you want to keep out of the main flow of the house.

With its three distinct levels, abundant amenities, and well-planned zones for both private and shared spaces, this European-inspired home delivers a lifestyle where every need is met and every day can feel special. Hosting a crowd or enjoying a quiet afternoon is easy here, since there’s space for it all.
