About 104 Corinne Ave
A brick walkway curves through a drought-resistant front yard, leading you through an arch to a stunning, wooden double front door, intricately carved thousands of miles away by Balinese artisans. Inside, more craftsmanship shines on the inlaid colorful travertine flagstone foyer floor (with subfloor electric heating to warm cold feet), and more carvings in wood and stone. A spacious living room with recessed lights and gleaming Brazilian cherry hardwood floors overlooks a serene, lushly landscaped back patio and garden through picture windows. The stucco walls have built-in alcoves to display treasures; the room is warmed by a Regency wood stove insert with a carved mantle and stone hearth.
The chef’s kitchen has the same cherry wood floors, as well as custom hardwood cabinets contrasting with granite countertops. A punch-out window adds natural sunlight to the recessed and pendant lights over a six-burner gas Thermador range and sleek modern range hood. The counter includes a raised breakfast bar between the kitchen and dining room, both overlooking the patio and its landscaping through oversized sliding doors framed in wood trim.
The upper level has a spacious master suite with enough room for a seating area, recessed lights, walk-in closets, and a custom-crafted vanity with a stone bowl sink echoing the stone backsplash. Two other bedrooms, one carpeted and one with oak hardwood floors, share a second full bath with tile floors, concrete counters, more custom cabinets and another stone bowl sink.
On the lower level, a cozy family room opens to a lower level of the back patio through sliding doors. This area features an attractive cast-iron free-standing Hampton gas stove, travertine tile floors with sub-floor heating, plenty of extra storage, a dramatic stone wall, and a built-in office nook with concrete counters. Another carved door leads to a half bathroom and laundry area.
The home’s interiors display beautiful materials and unique craftsmanship in every room. These same qualities follow you outdoors to a multi-level, private patio, surrounded by lush (but low-maintenance) landscaping, mostly nourished by worry-free drip irrigation. The concrete levels and water features could handle a large party crowd comfortably but are equally suited to a peaceful cup of coffee or glass of wine, contemplating the blue sky, listening to the built-in waterfall, and admiring the happy koi in their pond from a carved bench. Close to SC Gardens Elementary School & all amenites.
This immaculate home, upgraded with a match of the finest natural materials and the beauty of skilled artisans, is a calm, serene retreat from the world outside — one you, your friends, and family will find peace in for years to come.
