The Cambridge Ranch model, situated at the entrance of new Italian-inspired community Forest Ridge Estates, showcases the latest design trends with a focus on exquisite style and Old World charm. The architectural details, all-stucco exterior, red barrel-tiled roof, and pave stone front porch and sidewalk reflect that. Warm tones, arched doorways, niches, random-width oak floors and richly stained woods all add to the feel of this comfortable and elegant home. A beautifully tiled wall with a water feature is welcoming, but it’s not the focal point of the fabulous great room — it’s a cut-stone fireplace wall with built-ins and niches that grabs everyone’s attention. A gourmet kitchen features a butcher block top work island, eating counter, granite countertops and a cabinet-front walk-in pantry. The large suite boasts a see-through aquarium built into the wall separating it from the bath. The closet, built for two, has many nooks for storage, a dressing bench with clothes hooks and a full-length mirror. A covered deck with a fireplace adds the perfect touch for outdoor entertaining.
