Situated on 1.15 acres of wooded, rolling terrain in East Kessler, 1630 Junior is contemporary architecture at its best, capturing the clean lines and elegant spaces of the style while incorporating rich details. Completed in late 2007, the home’s exterior façade of stucco, brick and solid spruce wood slats, carries through to the interior entry way where two stories of plate glass expose the stunning pool and fountain at the back of the property. A patterned entry floor of imported porcelain tile and stainless steel insets add further interest to the light-filled space. Commercial grade windows afford spectacular views of the property from every vantage point.

The home offers 4 full bedrooms and an additional first floor 5th bedroom outfitted with a built-in credenza and an attached full bath for flexible use as a first floor study or guest room.

Four and a half bathrooms service the bedrooms. Guest and powder bathroom finishes, including a Vitraform glass pedestal, Kohler and Grohe fixtures, showers tiled in floor to ceiling limestone, natural stone floors and limestone or granite countertops, are equivalent to the quality seen in a high-end master bath.

Espresso-hued, white oak flooring adds to the warmth of the living, dining, breakfast and kitchen areas and continue up the open-tread staircase, which is illuminated by LED lights.

Cove lighting creates ambiance in the dining and living spaces. Special attention was devoted to creating a comprehensive lighting plan utilizing 4” recessed cans, art lighting, decorative pendants and MR-16 fixtures, which cast a subtle, refined light. The thoughtful approach to lighting extends to the exterior of the home. Two zones of exterior lights highlight the architectural features of the façade and the pool area, which can be controlled from three access panels within the home.

In the same way, the AV/sound system throughout the home is the result of a detailed plan. A Russound system allows for music control in 6 different zones, enabling the homeowner to set the mood in each room. Wall-mounted television connections exist throughout the rooms of the home.

A brick fireplace, flanked by built-in rift cut oak cabinets, masterfully conceals AV connections and equipment while providing a focal point for the living room. A wall of windows, each prepped for motorized window coverings, offers a direct view of the serene ozone pool fitted with pebble tile accents, a tanning shelf, hot tub and fountain.

The kitchen exhibits the simplicity of modern design in the custom European-style cabinets with stainless steel edge banding and self-closing features. A frosted glass serving bar adds an element of contrast against the sleek quartz countertops. The kitchen is equipped with the high grade appliances including a Miele steam oven, full oven and dishwasher and a Viking cooktop, wine refrigerator and a side by side built-in 36” refrigerator with a 30” freezer.

On the second level of the home, a catwalk offers panoramic views to the front and back of the house. A pair of guest rooms is situated at one end of the catwalk, separated by a Jack and Jill bath and adjacent to a den/playroom. At the other end, another bedroom with hardwood flooring and a dedicated bathroom finished in Jerusalem gold limestone and granite countertops serves as a perfect retreat for guests.

The spacious master suite sits at the back of the home, eye-level with the foliage of mature trees and overlooking the tranquil pool and grounds. A vaulted ceiling accentuated by rift-cut oak covered supports draws the eye immediately up and over to the frosted glass face of the fireplace on the far wall. On an adjacent wall, a leather covered inset frames the master bed.

The master bathroom is defined by the complexity and warmth of natural finishes. Seagrass limestone covers the floor and 4 X 24 slate tiles in subdued shades of green surround the tub and shower. His and hers vanities feature rectangular sinks and custom rift-cut oak cabinetry. Above, the dual mirrors are backlit by a soft, diffused light and hang on a wall covered in a textural yet contemporary horizontal stacked stone. A relaxing Kohler Sok overflowing bath tub and Kohler DTV shower system completes the soothing master bath environment. The master closet is off of the bathroom and is completely customized with hanging space and shelving, a cedar compartment for sweaters, valet bars and lighting. Transom windows introduce natural light into both the closet and master bath.

The home was constructed with the latest in energy-saving concepts in mind. The three HVAC units are high-efficiency, variable speed, 16 SEER units. Four tankless water heaters deliver endless hot water on demand, while keeping energy cost low. A combination of closed and open cell foam insulates the walls and roof of the home and radiant barrier decking together deliver a superior R-rating.

Exclusions: dining room light fixture, all TV’s, all AV hardware except Russound receiver.
