Property Description

Thoughtfully redesigned and curated by the current owners, 11610 Karen Drive is a reimagined mid-century modern home where interior and outdoor living spaces blend as one cohesive environment. Set on an expansive .62-acre lot in sought-after Lake Normandy Estates, the property showcases its contemporary finishes. Drawing on a background in landscape architecture, the seller thoughtfully curated an outdoor environment with an estimated exterior retail investment exceeding $300,000. The layered gardens were strategically placed to frame views through the home's expansive windows while creating privacy . Spring through fall, the gardens display a symphony of ever-changing color, texture, and seasonal interest. Curated views throughout the property include: 160+ newly planted trees, many very mature; 300+ boxwoods; rose, lavender, and tulip gardens; Redbud row; pea gravel and travertine pathways; an elevated greenhouse; an enclosed vegetable and herb house with cedar and locust wood raised beds and travertine flooring; a tool new shed; and a sport court. Designed for deer resistance and low natural maintenance while contoured for water mitigation and drainage. The private heated pool is surrounded by bluestone and travertine decks in a French pattern design. SEE LANDSCAPE FEATURES AND PLANTING LIST WITH DISCLOSURES. Inside, high-end hardware, lighting, and finishes set a refined contemporary tone across two fully finished levels offering 3,768 total square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 4 full bathrooms. Interior highlights include custom-cut 5-inch white oak hardwood flooring and rare olive wood flooring on the lower level, renovated kitchen and bathrooms, recessed lighting throughout, and a redesigned entryway and banister. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and expansive windows fill the residence with natural light.

The designer kitchen sits at the heart of the home, boasting built-in table space, a large center island, Italian-imported wood cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, and high-end stainless steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator. French doors extend directly to a newly constructed travertine patio, creating an effortless transition for entertaining and outdoor dining. The living room draws the eye to a wood-burning fireplace with a stepped surround and mantel that contrasts beautifully against the home's warm neutral palette.
