Embraced by the sound of gurgling water and gentle rustle of a breeze wafting through the botanical gardens, 325 St George Street comes into view as you follow the meandering slate path around the pond. And there it is, a perfect cottage with a covered porch inviting you to sit and contemplate the natural beauty of your surroundings. Vibrant colors complement detailed moldings and polished wood floors while high ceilings add a lofty feel. Every room is an architectural treasure to be savored. Awash with natural light, the living room holds a baby grand and all your friends with ease. European gas fireplace waits patiently for the occasional chilly evening to show off. Dining room is lit with a ruby teardrop pendant and the other lovely fireplace is here. If cooking is your passion the kitchen will inspire great culinary feats. Marble counters atop beadboard cabinets provide ample prep and storage space. Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher are concealed behind beadboard facing for a seamless look. Wolf 6-burner gas cook-top with electric oven is ready for action and there's a bar top for friends to consult with the cook. Kitchen opens to a wide porch on the Charlotte St side for coffee with the sunrise. Generous master is off the dining room via a set of graceful French doors. Bathroom is gorgeous - think 5-star European hotel, and there's a walk-in closet with laundry area. Master opens to the Charlotte porch where a fountain is set in the slate courtyard. At the opposite end of the house, the guest suite is lovely. Sun room looks out to pond and garden and can be used as your needs dictate. Adjacent room has been office or bedroom, with private bath and covered porch facing pond, patio and Lake Maria Sanchez. Revel in the outdoors and enjoy dining in the gazebo.
