IMAGINE TURNING ONTO a long, winding driveway that takes you home to a different world. A world where you leave your cares behind and sink into the serenity of nature. That’s the magic of this beautiful town of Merton estate located in the heart of Lake Country. You feel as if you are in the North Woods at a beautiful resort four or five hours away, yet actually you’re close to the action, or as close as you care to be. The essence of this transitional Tutor reflects its surroundings. Built on 12.2 acres of private woods and prairie, you’ll see strength in the home’s natural stone exterior and whimsy in the unique polygon tower that graces its front view. Everything is custom and the quality is tangible: Brazilian cherry wood floors,
artful wrought iron, soaring ceilings, walls of windows and an abundance of natural light. When each element is combined, it’s an open invitation to close your eyes, take a deep breath, exhale slowly, and smile. The lush, green landscape outside provides a backdrop for almost every room inside of the home. The great room is flanked by windows, allowing natural light to spill into the voluminous space. Twenty foot, cathedral ceilings make the room feel fresh and airy. At the same time your eyes are drawn to a two-story natural stone fireplace, which grounds the space. A second floor balcony overlooks the great room. This open concept continues into a casual dining area and gourmet kitchen.
