Nestled on a wooded lot of more than 1.3 acres overlooking a professionally widened ravine, this contemporary home in coveted Oakwood Estates offers a rare blend of architectural character, modern luxury, and seclusion. Situated near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and directly across from the golf course, the property enjoys a serene and private setting with views and limited through traffic. A professor emerita of architecture extensively and thoughtfully renovated the home throughout, showcasing high-quality updates that enhance both form and function. A freshly stained and painted exterior with a 10-year paint guarantee sets the tone. Inside, the reimagined entry opens to sweeping views of the natural landscape beyond. The expansive living room features premium German-imported waterproof flooring, all-new lighting, and a dramatic redesigned fireplace wall with custom built-in seating. The same flooring extends into the formal dining room and den, creating a cohesive and contemporary aesthetic throughout the main living spaces. The home flows seamlessly into the screened porch and updated kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and an adjacent powder room. A versatile main-level bonus room and renovated three-quarter bath offer flexibility for a home office, guest suite, or main-floor bedroom. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms include a private primary retreat with dual closets, built-in storage, a fully renovated spa-inspired bath, and a balcony overlooking the ravine. A beautifully updated hall bath serves the home's three additional bedrooms. The walkout lower level adds substantial living space with a large recreation room and newly added kitchenette. Outside, a premium travertine patio overlooks the wooded setting. Additional improvements include an updated sprinkler system, newer furnace and AC (2022), and a new dehumidifier (2026), creating a move-in-ready home that combines contemporary design, exceptional scale, and a remarkable natural setting.
