EDGEWOOD (D2839)Windows are the mirrors to the inside of a
home. The Edgewood (D2839) has incorporated the use ofdecorative windows all across the face of this spectacularhome. Transoms, arches, and window seats enhance thefaÁade and draws attention to the grandeur of the 3,057square foot Edgewood. Another outstanding feature of thishome is the uneven look of the exterior.
Up the steps and through the entry to theEdgewood brings one face-to-face curved stairwell, bothgoing up the second floor and down to the basement. To theright of the entry is a den with French doors. This roomcould also double as an office with its entry so close to thefront of the home. It has a wide window seat, great for curl-ing up with a book. The coat closet for guest’s coats is justbeyond the den as is the entry to the main floor half bath.The utility room is adjacent to the half bath.
The dining room is located in the center of thehome featuring arched entries on three sides. There is a rowof windows on the side, facing a screened verandah.Between the dining room and the living room are Frenchdoors that open onto the verandah. These two rooms areunique and add to the exciting design.
The living room is vaulted to add to the spa-ciousness of the room and has windows with transoms over-head front and back. The front window also has a windowseat area for reading a mystery in the light of day. Archedentries on two sides enhance the grandeur of this room.
The entire back of the main floor is comprised
of a large open vaulted family room, a nook and the kitchen.The family room has a large fireplace on the right side withbookshelves on either side. Windows overlook the backyardand provide extra light during the day. The nook is a half-moon with windows around. A set of French doors opens offthe kitchen/nook onto the verandah.
The kitchen is in the corner with an island sinkand eating bar. A pantry is located on the wall next to thedining area. It is an easy walk from the garage to the pantryto store those extra groceries. With the openness of thekitchen to the family room, the cook of the day can enjoybeing part of the conversation.
Upstairs, French doors open into the mastersuite in the rear. The vaulted master suite has the oval win-dow area. There is a large master bath with a spa tub, dualsinks, a shower, and two walk-in closets.
Bedroom 2 has its own private bath with ashower, two walk-in closets, while bedrooms 3 and 4 share acommon bath with a tub and two sinks. Bedroom 2 and 4have window seats.

EDGEWOOD (D2839)Windows are the mirrors to the inside of a
home. The Edgewood (D2839) has incorporated the use ofdecorative windows all across the face of this spectacularhome. Transoms, arches, and window seats enhance thefaÁade and draws attention to the grandeur of the 3,057square foot Edgewood. Another outstanding feature of thishome is the uneven look of the exterior.
Up the steps and through the entry to theEdgewood brings one face-to-face curved stairwell, bothgoing up the second floor and down to the basement. To theright of the entry is a den with French doors. This roomcould also double as an office with its entry so close to thefront of the home. It has a wide window seat, great for curl-ing up with a book. The coat closet for guest’s coats is justbeyond the den as is the entry to the main floor half bath.The utility room is adjacent to the half bath.
The dining room is located in the center of thehome featuring arched entries on three sides. There is a rowof windows on the side, facing a screened verandah.Between the dining room and the living room are Frenchdoors that open onto the verandah. These two rooms areunique and add to the exciting design.
The living room is vaulted to add to the spa-ciousness of the room and has windows with transoms over-head front and back. The front window also has a windowseat area for reading a mystery in the light of day. Archedentries on two sides enhance the grandeur of this room.
The entire back of the main floor is comprised
of a large open vaulted family room, a nook and the kitchen.The family room has a large fireplace on the right side withbookshelves on either side. Windows overlook the backyardand provide extra light during the day. The nook is a half-moon with windows around. A set of French doors opens offthe kitchen/nook onto the verandah.
The kitchen is in the corner with an island sinkand eating bar. A pantry is located on the wall next to thedining area. It is an easy walk from the garage to the pantryto store those extra groceries. With the openness of thekitchen to the family room, the cook of the day can enjoybeing part of the conversation.
Upstairs, French doors open into the mastersuite in the rear. The vaulted master suite has the oval win-dow area. There is a large master bath with a spa tub, dualsinks, a shower, and two walk-in closets.
Bedroom 2 has its own private bath with ashower, two walk-in closets, while bedrooms 3 and 4 share acommon bath with a tub and two sinks. Bedroom 2 and 4have window seats.

EDGEWOOD (D2839)Windows are the mirrors to the inside of a
home. The Edgewood (D2839) has incorporated the use ofdecorative windows all across the face of this spectacularhome. Transoms, arches, and window seats enhance thefaÁade and draws attention to the grandeur of the 3,057square foot Edgewood. Another outstanding feature of thishome is the uneven look of the exterior.
Up the steps and through the entry to theEdgewood brings one face-to-face curved stairwell, bothgoing up the second floor and down to the basement. To theright of the entry is a den with French doors. This roomcould also double as an office with its entry so close to thefront of the home. It has a wide window seat, great for curl-ing up with a book. The coat closet for guest’s coats is justbeyond the den as is the entry to the main floor half bath.The utility room is adjacent to the half bath.
The dining room is located in the center of thehome featuring arched entries on three sides. There is a rowof windows on the side, facing a screened verandah.Between the dining room and the living room are Frenchdoors that open onto the verandah. These two rooms areunique and add to the exciting design.
The living room is vaulted to add to the spa-ciousness of the room and has windows with transoms over-head front and back. The front window also has a windowseat area for reading a mystery in the light of day. Archedentries on two sides enhance the grandeur of this room.
The entire back of the main floor is comprised
of a large open vaulted family room, a nook and the kitchen.The family room has a large fireplace on the right side withbookshelves on either side. Windows overlook the backyardand provide extra light during the day. The nook is a half-moon with windows around. A set of French doors opens offthe kitchen/nook onto the verandah.
The kitchen is in the corner with an island sinkand eating bar. A pantry is located on the wall next to thedining area. It is an easy walk from the garage to the pantryto store those extra groceries. With the openness of thekitchen to the family room, the cook of the day can enjoybeing part of the conversation.
Upstairs, French doors open into the mastersuite in the rear. The vaulted master suite has the oval win-dow area. There is a large master bath with a spa tub, dualsinks, a shower, and two walk-in closets.
Bedroom 2 has its own private bath with ashower, two walk-in closets, while bedrooms 3 and 4 share acommon bath with a tub and two sinks. Bedroom 2 and 4have window seats.

EDGEWOOD (D2839)Windows are the mirrors to the inside of a
home. The Edgewood (D2839) has incorporated the use ofdecorative windows all across the face of this spectacularhome. Transoms, arches, and window seats enhance thefaÁade and draws attention to the grandeur of the 3,057square foot Edgewood. Another outstanding feature of thishome is the uneven look of the exterior.
Up the steps and through the entry to theEdgewood brings one face-to-face curved stairwell, bothgoing up the second floor and down to the basement. To theright of the entry is a den with French doors. This roomcould also double as an office with its entry so close to thefront of the home. It has a wide window seat, great for curl-ing up with a book. The coat closet for guest’s coats is justbeyond the den as is the entry to the main floor half bath.The utility room is adjacent to the half bath.
The dining room is located in the center of thehome featuring arched entries on three sides. There is a rowof windows on the side, facing a screened verandah.Between the dining room and the living room are Frenchdoors that open onto the verandah. These two rooms areunique and add to the exciting design.
The living room is vaulted to add to the spa-ciousness of the room and has windows with transoms over-head front and back. The front window also has a windowseat area for reading a mystery in the light of day. Archedentries on two sides enhance the grandeur of this room.
The entire back of the main floor is comprised
of a large open vaulted family room, a nook and the kitchen.The family room has a large fireplace on the right side withbookshelves on either side. Windows overlook the backyardand provide extra light during the day. The nook is a half-moon with windows around. A set of French doors opens offthe kitchen/nook onto the verandah.
The kitchen is in the corner with an island sinkand eating bar. A pantry is located on the wall next to thedining area. It is an easy walk from the garage to the pantryto store those extra groceries. With the openness of thekitchen to the family room, the cook of the day can enjoybeing part of the conversation.
Upstairs, French doors open into the mastersuite in the rear. The vaulted master suite has the oval win-dow area. There is a large master bath with a spa tub, dualsinks, a shower, and two walk-in closets.
Bedroom 2 has its own private bath with ashower, two walk-in closets, while bedrooms 3 and 4 share acommon bath with a tub and two sinks. Bedroom 2 and 4have window seats.
