A statement of luxury always begins with the opening movement....my listing at 630 Pullman ($4,180,000) in Hillsborough's Carolands neighborhood reaches lyrical heights from the very first moment. Enter through hand-forged 10 ft. iron double doors to a foyer of soaring height and luxury. Ceilings reach 21 ft. A spiral staircase finesses its way down to gleaming marble floors. The statement is bold. Persuasively Classical. And your immediate impression of discriminating elegance.
Custom crafted just 3 years ago, this magnificent villa merges classical elegance and modern function. This preferred Carolands block is comprised of other newer luxury estates, and is not far from Upper Ralston’s “New Mansion Row.” From the curb, the architecture reflects Italian Renaissance themes with a towering columned portico and symmetrical scale. Stepping inside, the grand foyer is a composition unto itself, soaring two stories to 21 feet in height. A true “conversation piece,” this sophisticated salon is a first indication of the home’s fine detail and entertaining flair. The foyer is easily sized for a grand piano, and serves as an opulent extension of the gathering spaces. Just off the foyer, an executive library is trimmed with marble Corinthian columns, built-in cabinetry, and raised gas fireplace. The sunken living room is another classically elegant chamber. Brazilian cherrywood flooring adds richness beneath nearly 12 ft. ceilings. French doors access a rear terrace. Don’t miss the architect’s nuanced attention to the soffited ceilings, wainscot, and fireplace trim. The main living areas are further enhanced by an extravagant formal dining room and dramatic kitchen/family great room. The family media space is open to the kitchen and rests beneath raised 14+ ft. ceilings.
Floorplan amenities include 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 half-bathrooms, plus dual offices (main level library + mezzanine office) throughout approx. 5,249 sq. ft. of living. A lower level provides perfect playroom or media space, complemented by a half-bathroom and a walk-out lanai patio ideal for table tennis or other recreation. The top floor, highlighted by a spectacular master suite, is a commanding perch accessible from both the grand staircase and the back staircase off of the family room. The mezzanine office makes a relaxed workstation complete with built-in cabinetry and airy foyer view. In the master suite, luxuries include double door entry, 12 ft. + ceilings, marble fireplace, private terrace, and indulgent spa-like bathroom. The enormous walk-in closet also represents the generous executive scale. Throughout every inch, 630 Pullman reflects a commitment to luxurious detail and pure livability. For the new owners, lifestyle rewards include a prestigious estate location, optimum connection to Highway 280 and the airport, and all the convenience of a newer custom construction. C'est Magnifique!
This stunning home is also available as an executive lease for $9,800 per month.
