I didn’t think this Modern Mediterranean could get any better.
I was wrong.
When I wrote about this home in 2017, I thought it was one of the prettiest I’d seen in years. It was fresh on the market and did not linger very long because the dream team of Danes Custom Homes, architect Don Caperton of The Caperton Group, and designer Alana Villanueva of AVID Associates know what buyers want.
A Modern Mediterranean Designed With Intention
With 7,971 square feet, five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and two powder baths, it’s clear this modern Mediterranean was built to take advantage of natural light and laid out with intention.
Five different living areas were designed throughout the house, which means multiple age groups can coexist peacefully with their friends and not be on top of one another.
A giant slider between the kitchen and poolside outdoor loggia offers the flow to the outdoors everyone wants. The team thought of everything.
Villaneuva did an excellent job of preparing this house for a buyer, and that’s why I thought it could not get better. The furniture and accessorizing were beautiful and created an instant vision of what it would be like to live in this house.
But marketing a home is different than living in one, and without a doubt, it was critical in the sale. But when you buy a house, you make it your own, which means hiring someone who gets your look and lifestyle.
So the new owners hired Traci Connell, owner of Traci Connell Interiors, who you may know as a 2021 Kips Bay Decorator Show House Designer and a D Home Best Designer for the past four years. She’s also been on the Luxe Interiors + Design Gold list in 2018, 2020, and 2021 and her firm’s work has been recognized in national and regional media.
She took the client’s love of color and elevated this modern Mediterranean to create a cheerful family home that reflects their style and personality. A palette of grays and blues is woven throughout the home, punctuated by subtle pastels and bold primary colors, creating eye-catching interest at every turn.
“It’s such a cheerful home, and the furniture suits the house beautifully,” Compass listing agent Amy Detwiler said. “It’s all available for purchase which is becoming common with all the relocations we see. People want a turnkey opportunity in a luxury home today because getting home furnishings has become so challenging.”
Finding a timeless turnkey luxury home in Highland Park is never easy, so I expect this modern Mediterranean once again will not linger on the market for long.
Compass Real Estate listing agent Amy Detwiler has 4412 Lorraine Ave. offered for $11.295 million.
