True ''country living'' in town! Stunning, re-imagined ''Atomic Ranch,'' built on one of the largest lots in The Groves, truly a beautiful and very private estate sized lot. The Groves is all you could wish for in a neighborhood: extremely quiet, very safe and golf cart friendly, yet close to everything. And, this home is located right in the heart of the neighborhood. SOLID is a fitting descriptor of both the materials and construction of the original home. The lot was chosen by the Engineer of the The Groves,Vincent Lesesne, who built the home to very high standards (documentation available). Lesesne family owned it until 2012 (56 years). A painstaking, studs-out renovation, designed by New World Byzantine, was completed in 2014 and brought the home to current standards of design.The 2014 renovation celebrated the historical integrity of the home while opening up the floor plan via an authentic timber frame colonnade. This design feature separates, while at the same time, connects the public spaces of the home (kitchen, living and dining rooms). Existing home features include: high 9' ceilings (rare for the era), cypress tongue and groove walls (with flush trim), oak floors throughout, a beautiful (original) brick fireplace which faces both the living and the dining areas, a central open kitchen with a massive handmade maple island and Thermador appliances. As a benefit, no trees are located adjacent to the home, therefore the integrity of the foundation is preserved, and affords many expansion options. Plenty of space for accessory buildings such as an ADU, pool house, detached garage, etc. The backyard is simply amazing! For a family that has a penchant for planting, there are multiple fruit trees, and a large sunny area for vegetable gardening. A few of the standouts: a very large fig, 2 yellow grapefruit, 3 clementines, 2 pomegranates, and olive trees. The backyard and pool area focuses on a very large, grand Live Oak, with limbs that touch the ground. The Oak provides a beautiful backdrop for any backyard activity, including enjoying the recently added top-of-line salt water pool. The sheer amount of densely wooded buffer (20-25') surrounding the backyard creates both a visual landscape layer below the skyline and unparalleled privacy. Current owners were so thrilled with the way the house lived that they re-engaged Andrew Gould / New World Byzantine to design an upstairs 1260 sf addition with 3 large bedrooms (one with a walk in closet), 2 full baths, and a living area. With the attic headroom being approximately nine feet, the aforementioned plan can be carried out by simply adding shed roof dormers while maintaining the current roof ridge. The plan also included a vast expansion of the kitchen by deleting the adjacent bedroom / bath / pantry to the Right and re-imaging the left over space into a large pantry / laundry and a full bath envisioned to handle kids coming in from the pool. This renovation was not started as owners plans changed, however plans will convey with home and are available upon request. Some images from the plans have been included in the pictures (pics 61-69).
