Where classic architecture meets modern artistry, this luxury custom home in Cory-Merrill embodies the perfect balance of tradition and innovation. Far surpassing the expectations of a typical spec build, this home showcases exceptional craftsmanship, curated materials, and a level of finish usually reserved for fully custom residences. An open, light-filled main level features lime-washed walls and an advanced lighting and control system that allows you to tailor ambiance and mood. Anchored by a professional-grade Viking range, the spectacular chef's kitchen showcases Matarazzo quartzite waterfall countertops, custom European white oak cabinetry, and luxury paneled SKS appliances. A sliding quartz backsplash cleverly conceals storage for spices, knives, and essentials, blending artistry with function. A main-floor office with en suite bath offers flexibility for guests or remote work, while a beautifully designed mudroom adds everyday convenience with built-in storage and drop zone, robot-vac housing rough-in, and powder bath with a stunning backlit onyx vanity. Upstairs, the serene primary suite feels like a private spa with heated floors, large zero-entry shower, sculptural stone soaking tub framed by imported hand-painted tile, and an expansive walk-in closet. The finished basement extends the living space with a swanky full bar, fitness or bonus room, and generous recreation area ideal for a media lounge or game room. Flush-mount Fittes outlets, kerfed door jambs, and ambient baseboard lighting enhance the home's clean lines and modern aesthetic. Together with the advanced lighting controls, these details create an interactive living experience where light and design adapt effortlessly to your lifestyle. Blending traditional warmth with contemporary minimalism, this home achieves a perfect balance of comfort, innovation, and timeless elegance.
