Nestled beneath a canopy of mature trees on a quiet Heights cul-de-sac, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is a striking blend of architecture, natural light and thoughtful design. Soaring ceilings and expansive windows create an airy connection to the lush surroundings. Distinctive details include maple floors reclaimed from a basketball court and a sculptural reclaimed-wood staircase. The sleek chef’s kitchen with Viking appliances flows effortlessly into the living spaces, while the spacious primary suite offers a beautifully updated bath. Energy-efficient features add to the home’s appeal. Just down the street, a wooded Hike & Bike Trail provides a peaceful escape beneath the trees. Minutes from M-K-T and some of the Heights’ best restaurants, shops and neighborhood gathering spots. Built by Shade House Development and featured in Dwell in 2007, this is a truly remarkable Heights home!
