Agent Heidi Trempel, who specializes in the prestige housing market, says Laurel Bank properties meet all the requirements of prestige buyers.

“Large grand rooms are what people want, and when you walk in here and see the grand rooms, high ceilings, and beautiful features, that’s the real draw.

“And then there’s this…”

Trempel points to the expansive open-plan living-dining area and state-of-the-art kitchen, located under a cathedral ceiling and facing a poolside entertainment area.

The north-facing extension offers a truly spectacular example of today’s essential open-plan living.

It’s easy to imagine this space being a place for a large family to gather or host a nice party. It’s made for entertainment. Bi-fold doors open to a covered outdoor deck overlooking the heated pool and landscaped gardens.

The wow factor continues in the kitchen. Stylish glass and steel gray cabinetry runs the width of this area and faces a line of top appliances including an integrated Liebherr refrigerator/freezer, six burner Falcon gas stove and dual ovens.
