Artful, lavish and precious rarity all synthesized to create this flawless masterpiece. Introducing a one-of-a-kind executive residence beaming bespoke craftsmanship and innovative sophistication. This new construction architecture pays homage to Kensington’s legacy with a brilliant Spanish design. The main house is a work of art, but not at the expense of function and livability. Every facet of daily life has been accommodated, all the while meticulously aligning with modern day contemporary precision. The fixtures, materials and details have created transcendent value. Add to that the perfectly appointed guest home, which is spacious and nothing short of pure inspiration. It doesn’t stop there, because the verandas, gardens and ensuing privacy are the ultimate calling card for the discerning connoisseur looking for that quiet luxury experience. *See Supplement for Details* The main residence boasts approximately 3000sf of timeless refinement. Extensive thought has been given to even the smallest design curve, flooring selection, wall finish, lighting and optimal window placement. Predominantly new construction, there are only a few areas of original front and side wall/roof framing remaining. The infrastructure boasts completely new plumbing, electrical and sewer to the street. The house features MARVIN Windows, FLEETWOOD Sliders, LUTRON Lighting, MIRAGE engineered Hardwood Floors, FITTES integrated air vents, the list goes on and on and on… Let’s make a visit into the kitchens of dreams. I mean, are you ready to take a culinary journey into elevated gastronomy? Well, here is the ultimate launching ground for such a trip since you have both MAIN and PREP Kitchens. This kitchen truly sets the standard for timeless functional intelligence, as well as a sleek presentation. All expectations are achieved, be it the SUBZERO refrigeration, WOLF 60” range with double oven and French cooktop, two MIELE dishwashers or exquisite QUARTZITE natural stone countertops. The 11ft+ Island feels dramatic and defining. The auxiliary PREP Kitchen offers a wine fridge, freezer drawers, its own dishwasher and speed oven with microwave, a party ready SCOTSMAN pellet ice maker, coffee station and an Instagram Selfie worthy bar! In a home full of highlights, the centerpiece of the home is arguably the dramatic staircase! Framed by spectacular windows, custom designed iron railing, limestone tile risers with MIRAGE treads, it is topped off with a “MOMA” quality RH Chandelier perched royally over an open two- story light drenched atrium. The main living areas are all transitional open concept rooms with sight lines directly from the front of the home, straight through the custom EUROLINE steel and glass doors and windows, out to the gardens. There is no facet of day to day living that hasn’t been considered. The design has integrated bedrooms on both floors, stunning baths, a dog bath, mud room, full laundry room (including ROOMBA Vacuum), an office and/or nursery, and to top it all off is the primary suite you’ve been searching your whole life for. The suite starts with a beautiful wardrobe featuring a CALIFORNIA CLOSET custom walk-in closet system. The bedroom itself is grand in stature and enjoys rooftop views leading out to the balcony. The lighting, blackout drapes and cabinetry will exceed your expectations. But that’s not all - step into the sleek primary bath. Once again, Quartzite natural stone, Kallista shower fixtures, a sumptuous freestanding BLU Bathworks bathtub and a refined potpourri of flooring, lighting and wall tiles take the stage. The guest house is also new construction boasting a separate address and power meter. The kitchen and island are better than most regular home kitchens. The forms, fixtures and materials are all consistent with the main house quality. Between the main house and guest house are the gardens. Manicured and cultured, there is room for a pool, spa or other recreational addition. Multiple electrical accommo...
