Details
- Additional structures: The second residence, Compass Rose, was custom-built in 2022 and showcases impeccable design and craftsmanship. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear this is not your typical cottage. The main staircase combines antique newel posts with tempered glass, setting the tone for a space where old-world charm meets contemporary luxury. The chef’s kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring custom Holland lacquer cabinetry with rattan detailing, green soapstone countertops, a butcher block island, and top-tier appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and an Electrolux Icon dual-fuel range. Wide plank engineered antique French oak flooring and thoughtfully chosen lighting fixtures enhance the home's inviting ambiance. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with a freestanding soaking tub, copper finishes, and European towel warmers, while an additional bedroom, currently used as a walk-in closet, can easily be converted back into sleeping quarters. A true bonus, the lower level of Compass Rose includes a separate studio apartment with a private entrance, full bath, kitchenette, and walkout garden area. With 11-foot ceilings, polished concrete floors, and an amethyst crystal compass inlay pointing to True North, this space is ideal for guests, rental income, or use as a creative studio.
