The versatile floor plan can function as either a 4BR home with an open den or a 3BR with a formal office and an informal den, accommodating all your workspace needs. The contemporary design comes with upgrades such as a wave wall in the great room that creates the illusion of lake waves flowing into the space, elegant tray ceilings, 8' interior doors, extensive crown molding, high baseboards, designer light fixtures, custom window coverings including plantation shutters and Hunter Douglas shades, custom closets, tile floors, and wide plank, hand scraped sustainable Acacia hardwood floors in the bedrooms.
