Old world charm meets modern simplicity. Set amidst the tranquil and exclusive Elder Mountain 1013 Cumberland Rd offers a distinct retreat with its main house featuring 3 bedrooms and 4 1/2 bathrooms. Additionally, there is a private Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom complete with its own private entrance providing versatile space for guests or extended family. Designed to bring the outdoors in, this home effortlessly incorporates mother nature's beauty. The focal point of the grounds is a sacred red maple tree in the backyard, reflected indoors through the many windows.
The main living area has a dedicated living room, an inviting eat-in kitchen, a separate dining room, the primary bedroom with ensuite. A walk-in pantry, full laundry room and a powder room complete this level. The main highlights of the upper level are the two sets of multi-slide pocket doors on flanking indoor / outdoor wood-burning stoves. The covered back deck showcases the Tuscan-style tile at the outdoor grill and cooking area, a perfect place to gather, cook and relax.
The kitchen is a culinary dream with custom concrete countertops, double ovens and gas ranges, custom cabinetry, double refrigerators and space to accommodate ample barstools. Vaulted ceilings and random widths of white oak floorboards following the direction of the rolling ridgeline of the roof, give the house a balanced yet asymmetrical feel. Off the dedicated dining room is one of the four decks.
And finally on the main level the private sanctuary of the primary bedroom with a large ensuite. The ensuite features tile floors, double shower, double vanity with custom concrete countertops, soaking tub, separate water closet and walking closet with custom closet cabinetry. The primary bedroom has vaulted ceilings with custom wood beams and a dedicated tile sleeping porch.
Descending downstairs reveal the two additional bedrooms, each with its ensuites and walk-in closets. At the end of the hall is another dedicated sleeping porch. Also an office space and reading nook under the wooden staircase. The large family room offers access to the gazebo patio area and the third wood-burning fireplace. A reinforced concrete bonus room and full bathroom intended for inclement weather and a handy utility garage finish off the bottom floor. Stained concrete floors and plenty of windows flooding the space with natural light and views of the trees.
Two unique staircases lead to the lower level, one featuring custom steel metalwork extending from the ceiling to the concrete floor and serving the purpose of the stair railing and support. The other wooden staircase features reclaimed wood from felled trees on the property.
The ADU above the garage serves as a comfortable and private space to serve guests or family intending to stay for an extended period, complete with lofts for bunks or storage.
Energy efficiency features include a geothermal HVAC system, a full-house air purifier, a temperature interchanger system, whole house closed cell foam insulation and solar panels. Thoughtful add-ons include a central vacuum system, irrigation system, alarm system, and two water heaters.
Outside the paver driveway adds to the old world ambiance, while raised garden beds and a dedicated garden potting shed echo the main home's design. Abundant patio space under the gazebo and back deck invites you to live, play and host, all the while mature trees maintain privacy.
