Description

You walk in under double-height ceilings and tall windows stacked to the ceiling. Built in 2022 as a forever home, this custom jewel box carries the imprint of award-winning local interior designers Ann Cox and Michael Morabito on every corner — the palette, the finishes, the fixtures, each selected as a statement piece. The finish level here is beyond the majority of new construction in the area. The living room is anchored by what would be a disservice to call an entertainment center. It is a piece of art by fabrication studio Modulo Design: vertical oak slats within a blackened-steel frame, a floating oak shelf running the full width and integrated into the front window bay, and adjustable steel planter brackets on the window columns that bring the greenery indoors. That same steel detail carries to the staircase and loft, where Modulo designed the frameless glass railing with the handrail integrated directly into the glass. Accordion doors open the full span of the living room to the rear yard — on a winter evening the cool breeze moves through the whole house. The yard is turfed, fenced, and low-maintenance, with mature oak and palm canopy for privacy. Large-format concrete-look tile runs the first level, warmed by the same light oak that threads through the display wall, the floating shelves of the beverage bar, and the face of the kitchen island. The beverage bar and wine cooler sit against a black textured tile wall. The kitchen pairs flat-black European cabinetry with dramatically veined quartz and waterfall edges on the island, a custom hood running seamlessly to the ceiling over the same textural black backsplash. A full downstairs bedroom sits beside a spacious full bath. Upstairs, the loft is one of the home's gems: a second seating area overlooking the living room below, corner windows and glass railings letting the tree canopy views shine. Wide-plank engineered wood runs the second level. The primary bedroom is impressively proportioned — 12-foot ceilings, room for its own seating area, and a private balcony made for morning coffee. The primary bath carries dramatically veined tile floor to ceiling, from the double-vanity backsplash through the oversized shower with bench and niche, alongside oak cabinetry and a large walk-in closet. Laundry sits just off the suite. Two more bedrooms complete the second floor, one with its own ice maker and beverage cooler — ideal as a nursery or home gym and easily fitted with a closet. These two bedrooms can be fully separated from the rest of the home, with their own stackable washer and dryer and their own private spiral-staircase entrance — an in-law suite or guest wing. Upgrades include, but are not limited to: Level 4 smooth drywall throughout, spray-foam insulation, impact-rated windows, solid-core 8-foot interior doors, motorized blinds in the living room, on the sliders, and in the primary bedroom, ceiling speaker pre-wires throughout, security camera pre-wires, and a rear alley-loaded two-car garage with Tesla charger and built-in storage shelving. All furnishings, art, and accessories are available for purchase separately — the home can be delivered completely turnkey. Two blocks from Julian B. Lane Riverfront Park and the Riverwalk. Minutes to downtown and the airport. Zoned for Plant High School. The crown jewel of North Hyde Park.
