It highlights all the latest appliances, design styles, and materials in one incredibly luxe package.<\/p>\n<p>The ultramodern, five-bedroom, 5.5-bath residence spans more than 7,700 square feet and includes a separate casita with a kitchenette and its own washer-dryer. The single-story house sits in a gated, upscale community in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/realestateandhomes-search\/Henderson_NV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Henderson, NV<\/a>, about 20 minutes from downtown <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/realestateandhomes-search\/Las-Vegas_NV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Las Vegas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It boasts incredible skyline views that can be enjoyed from the pool courtyard and throughout much of the glass-encased home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone does a fair amount of glass in these homes, and we capitalized on the views through the window systems,\u201d says <strong>Tim Unick<\/strong>, project manager for Sun West Custom Homes.<\/p>\n<p>The company aimed to make this home as warm as possible while still maintaining a sleek modern feel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt captures all the trends of 2024 with a lot of little hidden gems spread throughout,\u201d Unick notes.<\/p>\n<p>Those gems include a display wine room, state-of-the-art outdoor kitchen adjacent to the main living area, multiple fire features, and on-trend natural accents\u2014particularly a monolith stone wall that runs from the front entry to the backyard.<\/p>\n<p>Though the home was designed to impress with sleek finishes, it still manages to feel inviting and somewhat cozy. That could be why the nearly $11 million property went into contract earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not just a showpiece,\u201d adds Ulnick, explaining that it\u2019s a home anyone can enjoy without feeling like they\u2019re \u201cin a commercial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Exterior<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<p>Wine room<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>We love: The wine room<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Every mansion deserves high-end wine storage, and this home delivers in spades on that front.<\/p>\n<p>The glass-encased wine room abuts the dining room and is not only easy to access when hosting a dinner party\u2014it looks like a piece of art.<\/p>\n<p>The temperature-controlled area beautifully displays up to 800 bottles and offers ample space to comfortably move around. The only potential drawback? Those less-impressive bottles are hard to hide, which means you\u2019ll want to stash the Two Buck Chuck in a closet.<\/p>\n<p>Kitchen with wood accents<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<h2>More love: Wood accents<\/h2>\n<p>One of Unick\u2019s favorite features in the home is \u201cthe woodwork and craftsmanship that went into the ceilings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We agree. The detailed ceilings create warmth inside the home and outdoors, too. Plus, the contrasting finishes that make up triangular patterns in the kitchen ceiling feel particularly au courant. The wood balances the coolness of the marble and natural stone elements throughout the entire living space, creating a sense of peace and serenity.<\/p>\n<p>Wide-open spaces<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<h2>We love a flex space<\/h2>\n<p>One of the biggest design lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic was that flexible spaces for working, schooling, and living are crucially important.<\/p>\n<p>While those flex spaces might not be quite as important in a home this roomy, it\u2019s still a great feature to incorporate. This residence boasts combined flexible media and great rooms with pivot doors that can be shut to watch TV or opened for more space and natural light. These doors also help with acoustics.<\/p>\n<p>The primary suite is encased by giant, sliding-glass doors that allow for seamless access to the back patio and outdoor shower, both offering prime views of the Vegas skyline. Meanwhile, the side-by-side indoor and outdoor kitchens, which include a grill and pizza oven, offer an uninterrupted flow for entertaining guests or cooking.<\/p>\n<p>Glass office<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<h2>What we didn\u2019t love: The glass-encased office<\/h2>\n<p>Sure, no one wants to feel like they\u2019re living in a box (or worse, a cubicle!) while working, but this jewel box of an office offers zero privacy and plenty of opportunity for distraction.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s say someone wants to watch an action movie or an important game in the adjacent media room while you\u2019re trying to focus on a spreadsheet or a Zoom call. The chances of staying focused on the task at hand are slim to none. Plus, there\u2019s really no way to hide those piles of papers that are likely to accumulate on top of an actual working desk.<\/p>\n<p>Bedroom with wallpaper<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">\u00a92023 Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Media.<\/p>\n<h2>What we didn\u2019t love: The wallpaper<\/h2>\n<p>If we\u2019re being honest, it was hard to find things we didn\u2019t like about this home. It hits the nail on the head with a lot of current design trends. Some of these fads will age better than others. And, though this wallpaper in the secondary bedrooms does create a cozy feel (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/advice\/home-improvement\/hygge-the-feng-shui-of-2017\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hygge<\/a>, anyone?), we think it\u2019ll likely fade out of style pretty soon.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/news\/unique-homes\/new-american-home-2024\/\">New American Home 2024: There\u2019s Lots To Love, Plus a Couple of Minor Quibbles<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/\">Real Estate News &amp; Insights | realtor.com\u00ae<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Levi Ellyson\/501Studios, courtesy Pro Builder Medi The desire for seamless, indoor-outdoor living is still in demand\u2014that is, if this year\u2019s New American Home is any indication.
