Darling Home Dazzles with Design Details, High-End Finishes

Riverstone - Darling Home Dazzles with Design Details, High-End Finishes

September 21, 2016

When it comes to patio homes, design is everything. Meant to provide a low-maintenance alternative to sprawling executive homes, they must still offer contemporary style and a sense of space. Darling Homes’ design at 4914 Summer Manor in Riverstone meets those requirements with aplomb, dazzling with fine architectural details and high-end finishes.

The classic Mediterranean-style elevation is capped with a barrel-style red tile roof that enhances stone detailing on the stucco façade. A pretty courtyard adds interest to the entry, which opens to the three-bedroom, 2.5 bath home. Inside, homebuyers will find detailed architectural flourishes such as arched doorways, high coffered ceilings, French doors and oversized windows.

The windows are particularly effective in a light-filled sunroom adjacent to the kitchen. Overlooking the landscaped backyard, it is a serene space that flexes into a dining area, children’s playroom or sunny hobby room. The jewel of the home is the magnificent chef’s kitchen. Weekday cooks and weekend gourmands will both appreciate the GE Monogram appliances, including a six-burner gas cooktop, double ovens, a microwave and a built-in refrigerator. Glass-tile backsplashes perfectly complement the delicately colored granite countertops and lighted glass-front cabinetry. A convenient butler’s pantry displays similar décor, allowing owners to display favored serving pieces.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious family room, which is large enough to host family gatherings but cozy enough for romantic evenings in front of the floor-to-ceiling ledgestone fireplace. An attractive extended patio with an outdoor fireplace encourages year-round outdoor entertaining. With yard maintenance covered by the homeowners association, weekends can be spent lounging in the capacious master suite enjoying the spa-like bath that includes a walk-in shower, dual vanities and an enormous walk-in closet. Priced from the $590,000s, the 3,063-square foot home also has a study and a three-car garage.

Riverstone is an upscale, Fort Bend master-planned community offering a wealth of activities from swimming in the resort-style pool to fishing on Lake Riverstone. Canine family members have their own 3.5-acre park and can accompany their two-legged friends along the miles of winding trails. Tennis and a gleaming fitness center keep residents toned and healthy.
