Chic, bold, redesigned interiors give 5 Whitechurch a fresh look, with hardwood floors running through much of the main level and limestone appearing in substantial arches, columns and fireplaces. The personality is in the details: sculptural lighting, black-framed windows and doors, expressive wallpaper and unexpected color give the house a refreshingly individual point of view. Even the more functional spaces have been given attention, from the wood-paneled study to a dramatic powder room. The primary suite pairs a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with an adjoining alcove, direct outdoor access, a memorable bath with a freestanding tub surrounded by river rock and his and hers closets. An additional ensuite bedroom and wood-paneled study are also downstairs, while three more ensuite bedrooms and the media room are upstairs. Muted blue cabinetry, creamy quartz and brass accents set the tone in the kitchen, with a large island and gas cooktop. A wide picture window frames the patio and pool, with the adjoining breakfast area opening to more natural light and views beyond. The wet bar makes clever use of the space beneath the staircase. A broad elevated terrace spans the rear of the house with an outdoor kitchen and multiple areas for dining and lounging. Below, the pool and raised spa are worked into natural limestone terraces and waterfall, with mature oaks and palms overhead. What initially appears to be the extent of the backyard keeps going, opening beyond the pool into a remarkably deep, tree-filled stretch of the .61-acre property.
