5 Bedroom Custom Home Exterior
The five-bedroom custom exterior of the home boasts a subtle, white-washed brick. Eye-catching gables and black-framed windows add delightful contrast to the modern farmhouse exterior. Two gas sconces flank an oversized window flooding the dining room with natural light. A uniquely-designed iron front door, created by Clark Hall, resides just beyond the covered front porch.
Tucked off to the side awaits a three-car garage. The rear of the home includes an inviting covered porch that takes the concept of outdoor living to a whole new level. The back porch features Phantom screens, heaters, a grill, and a fireplace.
Luxurious Custom Interior Plans
The luxurious custom home interior features 5,804 square feet of contemporary, open-concept living. Immediately upon entering the home, you are greeted by a grand, two-story foyer with an open staircase. Warm hardwood floors extend throughout the entry level of the home. This home radiates opulence with high-end finishes and unmatched attention to detail.
Formal Dining Room
The formal dining room resides directly off the grand foyer.
The room includes a wealth of charm and character with shiplap walls and a decorative ceiling painted a calming blue. Gold sconces adorn each side of the window.
Living Room
The warm hardwood floor extends from the formal dining room into the expansive open-concept living area. The room includes a tile-surround gas fireplace with a floating wooden mantle.
Two floor-to-ceiling built-in cabinets with soft-close doors flank the fireplace. Access the covered porch through the living area via custom sliding doors.

Outside, a white-washed brick surround fireplace, recessed lighting, and a full outdoor kitchen await. The outdoor retreat features a robust island, grill, mini fridge, dining area, and even an outdoor half bathroom.
But, wait! There’s more. These features are just the beginning of the outdoor amenities. Just beyond the covered porch is a resort-style pool with a fire feature.
Kitchen
Back inside, the gourmet kitchen is an entertainer’s dream with a robust island and Dacor luxury appliances. The closest wall boasts ceiling-height glass-fronted cabinets, an expansive backsplash, innovative pop-out outlets, and a stainless undermount sink.
A convenient window above the sink overlooks the backyard oasis. On the back wall, an expansive wooden built-in presides over the gas stove. The elaborate built-in includes a built-in spice rack on either side of the stove, with additional spice racks on either side of the ovens. Yes, I said ovens!
This kitchen features two separate ovens to make cooking for a large group a breeze. On the final wall are custom double refrigerator doors with a wine cooler.
Just beyond the kitchen, a hallway leads to a scullery. The scullery resides behind an arch-top door and provides unmatched value. In addition to abundant cabinet and counter space, the room also includes a second refrigerator, sink, dishwasher, and microwave.
