Three years ago this 2,482-square-foot home was completely rebuilt, "from the foundation up," agent Faith Wilson says. The resulting two-storey home was designed by Michael S. Macdonald and has nine-foot ceilings, leaded-glass entry windows, a laundry chute and "spacious principal rooms that allow for maximum flexibility when deciding on use," Ms. Wilson says. For example, the previous owners used the living room as a media room, and the dining room could work as a large office. "There is plenty of space in the great room to set up a dining-room floor plan," Ms. Wilson says. The three-bedroom home has bamboo flooring, custom wrought-iron railings for the staircase, a south-facing patio and yard and "the prettiest guest bathroom" on the main floor, she says. The master bedroom features built-in drawers and a sound system, his and hers walk-in closets, and en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, soaker tub and Corian countertops. The Thomasville kitchen also has Corian counters, as well as a walk-in pantry and breakfast-bar island. The house also offers a three-car garage, herb and rose gardens, and a "terrific location — close to schools, beaches, tennis courts, shopping, restaurants and transportation," Ms. Wilson says. "This home gives its new owners an excellent opportunity to walk to most amenities," she says. "And they are looking forward to raising their family here." * 3768 WEST BROADWAY * ASKING PRICE: $1,549,000 * SELLING PRICE: $1,507,000 * PREVIOUS SELLING PRICE: $507,500 (2003) * TAXES: $5,311 (2007) * DAYS ON MARKET: 101 * LISTING AGENT: Faith Wilson, Re/Max
