Rossano 30-569
	A finely detailed wrought iron gate opens into the garden courtyard that fronts the Rossano, an estate home with a Spanish flavor. Stone veneer, ceramic tile roofing, Tuscan columns, and wood shutters are but a few of its inviting exterior features.
	Stepping through the arched entry door brings you into a dramatic two-story foyer that leads directly into a spacious great room with hardwood flooring and a cast stone fireplace. Cabinetry flanking the fireplace is designed to house a home entertainment center. Double doors at the rear open onto a covered patio, bounded by a row of Tuscan columns.
	The great room and dining room both link to the kitchen via arched openings. The dining room has its own built-in hutch. Notable kitchen amenities include: granite countertops on the two islands, a cooking counter with prep sink and stainless steel countertop, a huge pantry, built-in bookcases, and a high-ceilinged tiled-floor nook.
	Opposing double doors in the nook open onto covered patios on both sides. The patio on the left boasts a wood-burning fireplace. Other rooms to the left of the kitchen include: an exercise room, storage, mud room with storage, and a large laundry room with a walk-in closet and mud bath.
	The sumptuous owners' retreat, to the right of the great room, has a sitting room that can be totally closed off from the sleeping area. Notable luxuries in the private bathroom include: a claw foot tub, dual vanity, and an extra large shower with two showerheads.
	Three more bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, are upstairs in the Rossano. A balcony links them to a large recreation room, a utility/hobby room and a powder room.
