Under contract-accepting backup offers. 517 Escort Ave is a newly built modern residence that balances clean architectural lines with a warm, organic interior aesthetic. The exterior sets the tone immediately: layered siding textures, a soft coastal-inspired palette, and a welcoming front porch framed by crisp white columns. The symmetry, the roofline, and the oversized windows give the home a refined, contemporary presence on the street — understated yet undeniably upscale.

Inside, a dramatic two-story atrium floods the main living area with natural light. The vertical volume, black metal railings, and open sightlines create a sense of scale that feels both architectural and inviting. The living room’s soft neutral furnishings, textured rug, and warm wood accents complement the wide-plank French oak flooring that runs throughout the home. Every detail — from the matte black fixtures to the curated artwork — reinforces a cohesive, modern design language.

The kitchen is a standout moment. Light wood cabinetry, brass hardware, and a clean white tile backsplash create a soft, Scandinavian-inspired palette. The wood island adds warmth and functionality, while the pendant lighting introduces a sculptural touch. Stainless steel appliances, a large window over the sink, and thoughtful styling make the space feel elevated yet comfortable — the kind of kitchen that photographs beautifully and lives even better.

The dining area continues the indoor-outdoor connection with large sliding glass doors that open to the backyard. Natural light pours in, highlighting the round wood table, modern seating, and layered textures. It’s a space designed for real living — morning coffee, family dinners, or hosting friends with the doors open to the breeze.

Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene retreat. Soft natural light, a calming neutral palette, and views of greenery create a restorative atmosphere. The ensuite bathroom features warm vertical tile, a modern vanity with black fixtures, and a boutique-hotel feel. Additional bedrooms — including one with its own ensuite — offer flexibility for family, guests, or a dedicated office. The loft adds another layer of usable space, ideal for a lounge, play area, or creative workspace.

Every bathroom in the home is finished with intention: warm tile selections, clean lines, modern lighting, and a balance of natural materials with matte black accents. Even the powder room feels curated, with its vertical accent wall and minimalist fixtures.
