Alta Vista - A Gracious Custom Colonial with Panoramic Vistas
Elevated above the tree line in sought-after Oak Hill, Alta Vista (''High View'') is a remarkable custom colonial crafted by its current architect-owner. Set on 1.83 tiered acres and framed by mature silver oaks, this nearly 5,000 sq ft residence captures sweeping views and timeless design in a peaceful, private setting.
From the moment you enter, the home impresses with its grand architectural elements. The great room showcases 20-foot ceilings, a statement fireplace, a graceful curved staircase, and dramatic multi-level windows imported from Germany that flood the home with natural light. Custom German windows are featured throughout the property, adding a distinctive architectural touch. Intricate moldings run throughout highlighting the attention to detail in every corner.
The formal living room flows effortlessly into a spacious eat-in kitchenan entertainer's dreamcomplete with a central island, granite countertops, and triple sink stations. Nearby, a sun-drenched bonus room offers flexibility for a media room, game room, or lounge space.
A bright sunroom opens directly to the backyard, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation, while a dedicated spa room with a large hot tub and space for a home gym offers your own private wellness escape. The finished basement adds even more versatile living space.
Step outside to a backyard retreat: a custom Sylvan Gunite heated pool, expansive decking, and a charming cabana ideal for summer gatherings. The fenced property provides room for a future pickleball court, while a former tennis court has been thoughtfully converted into a garden oasis.
Additional features include a whole-house generator, three fireplaces (two wood-burning, one gas), and a spacious three-car garage. While impeccably designed and well-maintained, this home invites your personal touch to make it truly your own.
