Description

This Custom Lakewood Retreat is a residence defined not by basic square footage, but by architectural intention, volume, and privacy—a rare combination in Lakewood. Originally built as an approximately 810 sq ft residence (estimated), the home was thoughtfully expanded to approximately 930 sq ft and further enhanced by a permitted approximately 300 sq ft loft suitable for office or guest use. Seller states the property offers approximately 2,100–2,120 sq ft of total usable living space, elevating it well beyond typical tract homes. The interior unfolds with a continuous, open flow anchored by a dramatic family room with 16-foot cathedral ceilings and a custom architectural soffit above the kitchen. Nearly full-width sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, while clerestory-style windows introduce abundant natural light without compromising privacy—an architectural feature rarely found in the area. Wide-plank oak wood flooring grounds the main level, selected for longevity and the ability to be refinished over time. Multiple living environments—including a formal living room, expansive family room, and a permitted loft finished with engineered wood flooring—offer flexibility for entertaining, creative work, or refined guest accommodations. The primary suite is a true private sanctuary, opening directly to a covered patio and featuring a spa-inspired bathroom with dramatic wood-framed windows overlooking the secluded yard. Remodeled bathrooms throughout the home showcase polished brass accents, walk-in showers, and two tankless water closets, delivering a quiet, resort-level experience. Exterior details mirror the same level of intention, with an extended front porch featuring a covered Windsor board ceiling and a Presidential architectural roof, chosen for both aesthetic presence and long-term durability. This is not a flip—it is a custom residence evolved over time with care, restraint, and architectural purpose. A rare Lakewood offering for buyers who value space that lives large, privacy that feels intentional, and design that endures. Buyer to independently verify all information, including square footage, permits, and intended use.
