About 300 Whispering Meadows Ave

TWO CUSTOM homes on separate spectacular view lots for the price of ONE! EVERYTHING says CUSTOM The main home was built for entertaining and EVERYTHING is custom from the imported Mexican solid core doors throughout, the massive local rock and boulder fireplace that is a work of art, soaring 17 foot vaulted ceilings, PLUS expansive, unobstructed VIEWS of the Homer Spit, glaciers and so much more Approaching these two homes on the long, meandering driveway, through beautiful open meadows protected by a border of mature spruce trees, you know you are coming to someplace special. You'll notice the main house right away and the quality of the custom masonry support pillars, the large deck and the curved imported Mexican wood entry door welcoming you home. As you enter the main home, you'll see not only the truly unique, excellent craftsmanship that exemplifies the best of Homer construction, you'll also see breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains, Kachemak Bay, 13 glaciers, 3 volcanoes, and Homer Spit, right from the spacious comfort of your new home. This meticulously designed home is covered in high-quality finishes. The slate, hardwood, pillowed limestone, carpet, and tiled floors support the radiant natural gas heating throughout the house. The high vaulted 17' high cedar tongue and groove ceiling in the grand living room creates a space perfect for entertaining or just simply relaxing in the lap of luxury. The Massive Stone fireplace in this great room was crafted from boulders hand-picked from nearby beaches of Cook Inlet and Kachemak Bay. The fireplace has a large curved white pine mantle that extends into the stone masonry. The same stones and masonry accent the external stone pillars surrounding the exterior deck. Open to the living room is the kitchen. Two large kitchen islands have seating for 8 people. Top-of-the-line, two-years-old GE Profile appliances (refrigerator, induction stove top, dishwasher) are arranged so that the master chef in you can efficiently cook locally caught salmon, halibut and crab. Deep turquoise custom cabinetry with marine-themed pulls, and open shelves with imported carved corbels of ocean themes, beautifully display easily accessible serving pieces and plates. This Kitchen is truly a Chef's paradise. The blue pearl polished granite of the built-in outdoor grill matches the kitchen counters where a window opens as a pass-through from the grill. The dining area adjacent to the open kitchen is flooded with natural light and has more than enough room for you to enjoy your meals while overlooking beautiful Kachemak Bay. Beyond the great room on the main level is a 1500-square-foot "second" master suite. This space is amazing and could easily be reconfigured to accommodate more bedrooms. This hardwood-floored downstairs master suite has its own private entrance and huge walk in closet. It also has a wall of south facing windows with exceptional Bay and glacier views. The ensuite bathroom has cobalt blue and white custom tile work and a corner jacuzzi tub with views of the of the backyard meadows. Also on the main level is the MOVIE THEATRE ROOM with sound-proofed suede-covered tiles. The room is perfect to watch movies and games on the projector big screen. And this room also serves as the third bedroom. A bathroom with more beautiful finishes and an oversized shower has a private entrance from the media room as well as access for guests through a hall door. Rounding out the main level is a big laundry and pantry area in the mudroom that leads from the oversized two car garage to the main living area. The elegant staircase to the second floor is curved and features a custom handrail by local Bay Welders along with custom slate masonry and a cozy reading corner at the top overlooking the backyard area. The huge upstairs Primary Master Suite has Panoramic views of Kachemak Bay, the Cook Inlet, and 3 Volcanoes. You have your own gas fireplace, custom travertine wine bar, massive vanity, separate toilet room, and huge travertine steam shower with 8 shower heads. Tucked behind a full-length sliding floor-to-ceiling mirror on both sides hides a 10' X 15' walk-in closet connected by a welded custom staircase to the other master closet below. And as if this isn't enough, there is a stunning office upstairs with custom-crafted built-in red cabinets, desks, and bookshelves overlooking the grand living room and Kachemak Bay. Every aspect of this property exudes elegance and craftsmanship. The best local craftsmen were employed for the highest quality of workmanship of local and imported materials. The 15 handmade white cedar wooden doors reflecting the arching pattern throughout were imported from Mexico. You will not find another home in our market that rivals the quality and features in this main home. And, in today's world, you would be easily paying double now to build anything close. And as if the main house was not enough, the adjacent guest cottage is icing on the cake. This spacious two bedroom, one bath home has been a very productive vacation rental and it is completely independent with a full kitchen and laundry. The open living room and kitchen all have great Bay, glacier and Homer Spit views, and the bedrooms are roomy, perfect for guests or family overflow. Each home has a separate lot and a separate septic system. There is a shared well located on the cottage lot, which has a recorded shared well agreement. Sellers will include all furnishings in the cottage and main house, other than the main house dining room chandelier, with a full price offer. Once you come see this majestic property, I guarantee you will be ready to make this your own slice of our Homer paradise... The Sellers are offering a variety of purchase options. They have listed the adjacent guest house property for $449,500, MLS# 24-11465, and they will also sell both the main house independently for $1,095,000, MLS 24-9345. If the cottage sells independently, the Sellers will be building a new driveway for private access to the cottage.
