Perched on nearly half an acre with sweeping views, this fully reimagined modern retreat delivers a level of design and finish rarely seen in homes of this era. Spanning 3,011 square feet, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence has been completely transformed into a bold, architectural showpiece where clean lines, rich textures, and curated materials come together seamlessly. Step inside to an expansive, light-filled open concept layout anchored by wide-plank flooring and oversized windows that frame the surrounding landscape. The heart of the home is a statement kitchen designed to impress—featuring custom deep green cabinetry, striking black stone waterfall island, designer lighting, and high-end appliances. This is not a standard remodel—it's a space built for entertaining and attention. The main living areas flow effortlessly, offering multiple gathering spaces that feel both elevated and comfortable. A custom accent wall, warm wood tones, and intentional design choices throughout create a cohesive, magazine-worthy aesthetic. The primary suite and bathrooms have been thoughtfully redesigned with spa-like finishes, including sleek tile work, modern vanities, and elevated fixtures that rival new construction. Outside, the property opens up to . 479 acres of usable space, offering privacy, room to expand, and unobstructed views that set this home apart from anything nearby. Whether it's quiet mornings or sunset gatherings, the setting delivers. Originally built in 1980, this home now lives like a brand-new custom build—with the added benefit of space, lot size, and character that new homes simply can't replicate.
