![]() Pictured above is 7101 Malibu Cove (see additional photographs on next page). The home has about 4,100 square feet with a total of four bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths. If you are tired of Tuscan houses, you will like the overall appeal of what the builder has created here. It is a timeless architectural style. Easy to see in the aerial photograph above is the classic brick driveway, traditional exterior and metal roof. You have not seen a home this close-in (just off of Loop 360 and 2222) that feels this private. Part of this is due to the oversized, pie-shaped lot. Adding to the sense of being hidden away is the location of the lot itself--at the very end of the street, and the house is surrounded by greenbelt space. The main house, which has two bedrooms, is a heart-stopping display of inviting architecture. How private is the pool? It is in the category of bathing-suits-are-optional! The other two bedrooms are contained in the large, detached guest house. It is exceptional. It is not only of the same quality as the main house, this "second" house is large and includes two bedrooms, living area and spacious bathroom. Guest houses are ideal if there is any chance you may need to accommodate aging parents. A detached guest house can also be used for a nanny, college-bound student or as an office. Everything is different in an Archiblend Home. If you find you have an instant affection when you step inside, it is no doubt due to the careful planning that goes into each one. Wherever practical, interior walls are removed. Harsh lines are replaced with natural shapes. Surfaces, textures, colors and materials are woven into a seamless patina that is richly organic. And the line between indoor and outdoor spaces is almost unobstructed. There is an undercurrent of balance in these designs that connects with people on a deep and gratifying level. Unique Design
Elements The privacy afforded by the lot allowed for a one-of-a-kind master bath. The walk-in shower has a glass exterior wall. On many mornings, you can shower while watching deer stroll through the trees and yard. The shower floor is made of metal that resembles small riverbed stones. The tall fireplace is notable for its appearance. Instead of the typical stone or brick treatment, here you will see a tall, lodge-style section made of acid-washed copper panels that throw off a rainbow of color. You need no artwork over this fireplace--it is already built in. And why hasnt someone done this before--instead of a small, dark pantry and utility room, this one is positively huge. It is lined with windows for natural light. It has extra space dedicated for a hobby room, and walls include an eyeful of built-in storage drawers and cabinets. There is even a folding desk for laundry and wrapping presents. The builder has just cut the
price--it started at $1.4-million dollars, now $1,099,000
(there are a couple of conditions--call for details). If you
are a ready-to-act buyer, get to this house right away. Keep
in mind that there is a private waterfront park that is part
of the neighborhood. It includes a playground, day dock and
boat launch. For additional information, call the builder's agent, Stan Barron Properties at 512.345-8585.
