e second level of the home is reached
by a curving sweep of a staircase, made
more splendid by a glittering chandelier
and round ceiling, raised and glowing,
that greets one at the top. (is staircase
is housed in a turret covered with hand-
cut stone, a process that took craftsman
over 10 months.) On this floor one finds
the atmosphere of a family home balanced
with a well-tempered grandeur: ere are
two cheerful bedroom suites, ideal for kids,
that are steps away from a master wing that
makes up much of this floor and includes
dual walk-in closets, a marble bath suite
and a serene, fireplaced library decked in
sleek custom woodwork.
e home's basement is an animated den of
escape, aptly introduced by way of a curved
stairwell lined with diamond-plated chrome
metal. It's an industrial-meets-space age look that
continues in the sprawling recreation area that feels
like a nightclub, with polished concrete floors, an
onyx bar and lots of seating. Next stop is one of
the home's most flashy highlights: a commercial-
grade theater complete with a widescreen projector
screen and a sound system (Dolby Atmos) that
moves around viewers in three-dimensional space.
"is is the nicest home theater I've ever seen
in a home," remarks Chhabria. "e owner is a
technology and movie buff."
Enter the property at Strawberry Lane and
one enters a self-contained world of luxury and
diversion. "ere's a different level of quality that
went into the project," explains Chhabria. "From
the floor plan to the engineering and quality of
finishes—every detail is just perfect." e neat
green lawn even extends all the way to nearby
Strawberry Trail, and includes a fresh-air sports
court, ideal for paddle tennis or basketball, plus a
sunny guest house with many possibilities beyond
housing visitors. e homeowner, for instance,
used it weekly to host post-game dinners and card
gatherings with friends.
"e biggest selling point of this home is the
overall package of what you're getting," Chhabria
points out. "An extremely well-built home. A
large home that's perfect for a family. And, you're
getting an amazing value."
