Ardor for Arbor. A Laurel Hill hideaway on over two wooded acres, yet convenient to everything. Location couldn't be better for this impeccably designed home defined by airy, clean lines. Mid-mod style by Joe Nassif and built by JP Goforth creates a dynamic cohesion between the exterior, interior, and natural environment. At once low-key and luxe, artful and abundant windows mixed with open spaces and authentic materials are hallmarks of the smart and flexible layout. A roster of alterations, crafted with keen attention to detail, inspire a bright contemporary spirit. Soft and subdued neutrals like blonde hardwoods; a dark tile entry; stone counters paired with warm wood and glass kitchen cabinetry; cool + collected metallic lighting; white built-in shelving; fresh tile bathrooms with sleek fixtures; and soothing wall colors are as youthful and enduring as a fresh breeze. Spacious bedrooms with plank flooring elevate everyday living. Welcome to the hottest dining scene in town- counter culture in the kitchen, multiple options for where to position your table(s), or out-and-out tranquility alfresco on the screened porch or paver patios with outdoor kitchen and fireplace. The deck with cable railing and fenced yard provide more ways to enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. The prevailing mood is calm, cultivated and simply sublime. Color Me Modern.
