About this home
Character around every corner and on every level. A unique opportunity to build with topography is showcased by this stunning custom spec home from Stone Built Construction. Totaling around 2800 square feet, the presentation of this home is spectacular. The ground floor offers a private guest space/office/gym with a full bath and large conditioned storage room. An elevator ride takes you up to the main living with a bright and open living space with gorgeous moldings, floor and ceiling. The kitchen is open to the living and dining rooms. Perfect for entertaining with its elegant finishes and even better for cooking with ample working space, Thermador appliances, walk-in pantry and a fantastic amount of natural light. Also on the main level is the owner's suite, tucked off the main hall with a spacious bath, highlighted with beautiful tile work and a spa-inspired multihead shower. Accent lights on the stairs lead your guests up to their quarters, perched in the tree canopy that surrounds the home (and neighborhood) each with their own private on-suite that will make them feel unbelievably welcomed (for as long as you want them). River Bluffs is a gated, waterfront community offering a marina, boat ramp, pools, fitness centers, a half mile riverwalk, community farm and much more. Property is not waterfront.
