Completed in late 2021, this fully custom Scandinavian-inspired home is as pristine as it is beautiful.

Flanked by a white oak slat wall and illuminated by oversized picture windows, the semi-open staircase ascends to the home’s upper level which offers a spacious primary retreat with an office alcove, 2 walk-in closets, and a gorgeous spa-like bathroom with a curbless walk-in glass shower and double floating vanities. Two additional ample bedrooms, each with stylish ensuite bathrooms and walk-in closets, grace the front of the house.
