Architect-designed home in the highly desirable University Hills across from Eisenhower Park! Nestled between vibrant open space and lush backyard landscaping, this contemporary home revels in its own private oasis. Every detail in this show stopping home was carefully chosen by the owners. High ceilings, gleaming maple hardwood flooring and cabinetry, and slabs of granite countertops were used wherever possible. Large windows in the living and dining rooms overlook a naturally landscaped front yard and the park. The well-equipped kitchen open to the adjoining family room with soaring ceilings, skylights, and a stunning window wall overlooking majestic evergreen trees and a generous deck. Floor-to-ceiling windows appoint the great room, displaying lavish views of the expansive deck and tranquil landscaping. A hallway from the open living area leads to a first-floor home office and the secluded master retreat featuring a walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The en suite master bathroom showcases a deep soaking tub, marble-topped dual vanity, bidet, brushed nickel fixtures, and an overhead heater! A dramatic staircase, which wraps around an elevator, takes you to the light-filled second-floor bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Downstairs, the garden-level basement lives in a world of its own! The lower-level gallery-style hallway leads into the second expansive home office with built-in desk and cabinetry. Rows of windows provide natural light for the office and a fourth bedroom. A three-quarter bath plus a large storage room with built-in shelves and metal cabinets rounds out the basement. Two separate heating and cooling systems, as well as a humidifier and ionizer add to comfort and health. The composite deck overlooks mature, luscious landscaping. Park in the heated two-car garage with shelving and a special garage refrigerator. This unique home is situated close to shopping, the Highline Canal trail system, a public library, light-rail, and I-25.
