Styer Real Estate

Nestled comfortably between the two historic villages of Birchrunville and the art driven hamlet of Yellow Springs, sits this magnificent John Diament built oasis. Every inch of the property is Bio Sustainable, from the specimen plantings, to water features allowing a balance of environmental well-being on the property. The owners dream was to leave a friendly footprint. The home was designed by Brooke Drinkwater under the detailed scrutiny of the owners. Geothermal heating and air conditioning, along with roof overhangs, Lutron lighting system, whole house generator, 3 floor elevator, are just a few of the lifestyle amenities. The home itself was designed for convenience and performance. The evidence of this is in the extremely low utility costs, electric blinds, too many closets to count all fit out with organization systems and countless other features. A first floor master bedroom equipped with his and hers full baths along with a two story closet gives access to the second floor hall way. Two generous bedrooms and a large multipurpose room complete the second floor. Another wonderful feature of the first floor is the private mahogany office, with adjacent powder room and separate entrance, allowing the owner an opportunity to entertain clients privately.
