A Totally Unique Must-See Single-Family House in Lake Ida, Delray Beach. This may be the most interesting single-family house in the Lake Ida district, close to downtown Delray Beach. As you enter the property, you are immediately awestruck by the well-maintained front yard, with a large circular driveway that offers complete privacy as it is hidden behind a giant hedge. Here you will find a garage, and two carports with lots of additional parking spaces. Then as you approach the main entry, you'll see an antique privacy gate that leads to a courtyard with a real Japanese Zen feel. Once you enter the house, your foyer consists of a long hallway which in one direction leads to the living area and kitchen, and in the other direction to the bedroom quarters. You will from the beginning appreciate the solid hardwood white-painted floors that flow through the entire house, as is the case with the ceilings. Yes, this is true Florida charm at its best! The living room consists of a large open floor space with a fireplace in stone, and a staircase that leads to a separate loft which the current owners use as a TV/music room. The vaulted ceiling with wood beams makes for a dramatic, impressive, and open bright feeling with twelve vertical elongated windows, which brings natural light into the entire living space, including the kitchen which is located on the opposite side of the living room. The kitchen itself is modern with white shaker-style cabinets and gray colored quarts countertops, and it has an island with seating for four people that is perfect for entertaining. You'll also appreciate the large commercial grade gas stove with a real exhaust hood to the outdoors, as well as the oversized refrigerator. The backyard is like a little private hidden oasis with marble pavers, a Japanese inspired water fountain, exotic plants and Japanese bonsai trees, a natural lagoon-looking swinging pool, not to mention a gazebo area where you can hang out come rain or shine. This resort-like paradise practically wraps around the entire house. And just wait until you see the large master bedroom with its own private outdoor area and oversized shower. This house is unique in all aspects of the word!
