It may be the perfect house. A Brent Gibson Homes home in the Stonemill Manor addition off of Coltrane and NE 122nd has it all when it comes to beauty, functionality and views.
The 4,720 square feet, four-bedroom home boasts of two stories, three bathrooms, a half bath, a study, a formal dining room, a stunning kitchen, outdoor lounge spaces, a dining area and even a massive game room.
Located at 12209 Grand Cedar Lane in Stonemill Manor, Gibson's design combined beauty, thoughtful elements and functionality for what he calls "one of his most beautiful designs."
As you enter the home, cathedral ceiling with wood beams and the cast-stone fireplace immediately catches attention. A mirrored wall opens up the space, which has an open flow to the additional living areas, including an outdoor living area.
Sliding doors - three of them, in fact - allow for luscious natural light from the tiled outdoor living area with its enclosed screens and fireplace.
"This French home was designed to take in all the beautiful views of the nature park in Stonemill Manor," said Gibson. "The side porch is one of the unique features in the design of this home, allowing all the rooms to flow out onto an expansive porch with fireplace and phantom screen shades that lower to the floor."
The dining area is accented with an impressive crystal chandelier and a hand-painted focal wall that blend well with the columns and chevron wood floor. The entire house, including the living and dining areas, were designed to show off the verdant views of the park the house overlooks.
The windows of the home, as well as the 600-square-foot enclosed outdoor living space, offer soothing and relaxing views of the parks' waterfalls and streams and allow natural light to fill the home.
The kitchen is the heart of any home. The Grand Cedar home is no exception. With floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and quartz exterior countertops, the kitchen also sparkles with a designer backsplash and built-in china hutch. A free-standing island and working pantry provide additional workspace and functionality without being cluttered by built-in appliances that disrupt the flow.
The utility room is also to be admired and is far beyond a typical utility room. It includes a refrigerator space & wet bar/utility sink, a built-in floating desk with leathered granite top and a walk-in storage closet easily accessed off the outdoor patio. The fine details aren't neglected either, as the room boasts of quartz countertops, marble flooring and a swinging butler's door.
"This home is great for entertaining small groups or large gatherings," said Gibson
Two of the bedrooms are located on the ground floor, and two are located on the top floor. The master bedroom is a gem with a spacious sitting area, natural views from a large picture window and a door to outdoor living area. The room's master bath not only has a large walk-in shower and a soaking tub to ease away the stress of the day, but also floor-to-ceiling marble tile, herringbone marble tile floor and marble countertops.
The massive walk-in closet was designed with pull-down hanging rods, designer lighting, and a floor-to-ceiling mirror with a hidden velvet-lined jewelry cabinet.
In addition to a private study, the home also has a guest suite at the opposite end of the home from the master. The suite has white oak cabinetry, leathered counter and a vessel sink.
Don't miss the floating staircase with hand-made, custom-designed, wrought-iron railing, which elegantly leads to the second-floor space.
The home was built by developer David Yost and real estate agent and designer Joyce Brown.
"When custom designing a home, I always take into consideration the curb appeal of the lot and the direction the home will face to design the perfect home," said Gibson.
