The Residence
Custom by Counter, kept by its first owners.
Michael Counter completed 4451 Lena Lane in 2010, and its original owners have lived here ever since. It's Mediterranean in spirit: stucco under a hipped tile roof, cast-stone columns, arched openings and scrolled wrought iron, on a lot finished with new turf front and back.
The arched wood front door opens onto a staircase that curves up two stories behind a wrought-iron balustrade, wrapped by a wave mural and lit by arched windows and a crystal chandelier at the landing. Rich wood floors run through the entry, dining room, family room and kitchen, under tray ceilings, crown molding and plantation shutters throughout.
The formal dining room sits just off the entry under a crystal chandelier. The family room centers on a cast-stone fireplace flanked by built-ins and opens across an arch to the kitchen: cream cabinetry with glass-front uppers, granite counters, a stone mosaic backsplash, double wall ovens, a gas cooktop beneath a corbeled hood, a paneled refrigerator, and a long island with a farmhouse sink and seating for four. The breakfast room sits in a bay of shuttered windows.
The primary suite is downstairs, on the main floor, with its own bay of windows and a bath with two separate vanities, a frameless glass shower and a soaking tub. A study wears floor-to-ceiling stained built-ins behind French doors. Upstairs, a game room with a wet bar opens onto a covered balcony framed in arches. One guest bedroom has its own en-suite bath, a Jack-and-Jill bath serves two more, and there's a powder bath on each floor. Out back, a covered loggia with a wood-plank ceiling gives way to a travertine patio, a pergola and a fire pit, all behind tall privacy hedges.
