Thoughtfully redesigned and curated by the current owners, 11610 Karen Drive is a reimagined mid-century modern home where interior and outdoor living spaces blend as one cohesive environment. Set on an expansive .62-acre lot in sought-after Lake Normandy Estates, the property showcases its contemporary finishes. Drawing on a background in landscape architecture, the seller thoughtfully curated an outdoor environment with an estimated exterior retail investment exceeding three hundred thousand dollars. The layered gardens were strategically placed to frame views through the home's expansive windows while creating privacy. Spring through fall, the gardens display a symphony of ever-changing color, texture, and seasonal interest. Curated views throughout the property include: more than one hundred sixty newly planted trees, many very mature; more than three hundred boxwoods; rose, lavender, and tulip gardens; Redbud row; pea gravel and travertine pathways; an elevated greenhouse; an enclosed vegetable and herb house with cedar and locust wood raised beds and travertine flooring; a new tool shed; and a sport court. Designed for deer resistance and low natural maintenance while contoured for water mitigation and drainage. The private heated pool is surrounded by bluestone and travertine decks in a French pattern design. SEE LANDSCAPE FEATURES AND PLANTING LIST WITH DISCLOSURES.
