DEVARON: An Architectural Showpiece Engineered for Everyday Living Some homes are built; others are masterfully engineered and impeccably maintained. Welcome to Devaron, a spectacular, custom-designed mid-century modern estate spanning 2,557 square feet of clean, turn-key luxury. One of the largest homes in this neighborhood, it offers unparalleled value at only $179/square foot. Boasting a flawless pedigree of only three caring owners over its 70-year history, this property offers a level of historic soul, thoughtful design, and consistent maintenance that cookie-cutter modern homes simply cannot match. So unique and storied is this property that it features its own published 60-page autobiography, available for buyers to read during tours. Architectural Brilliance Meets Modern Luxury Originally just 1200 square feet, a meticulous engineer more than doubled the footprint through a series of thoughtful and creative additions over five decades of ownership. The home now unfolds along a striking 45-degree geometric motif that maximizes light, creates breathtaking sightlines, and defines the expansive layout. Devaron's current owners seamlessly completed the narrative, polishing the interior with clean-lined walls, smooth ceilings, and designer fixtures. The show-stopping octagonal front room stands as an architectural anchor, flooded with natural light from oversized windows and centered around a dramatic gas fireplace. Here, elegant, architectural glass provides a secondary motif, connecting to similar glass brick accents in the flex spaces and bathrooms plus custom stained glass in the primary closet and living room. A Chef's Dream Hub At the heart of the home lies a beautifully reimagined, open-concept kitchen. Dominated by twin premium granite waterfall islands, this high-end culinary space provides an unparalleled setting for large-scale entertaining or extra space to spread out prep work while preparing an evening meal or baking a cake. Brilliant open sightlines connect the kitchen effortlessly to the dining room, expansive living room, and a sun-filled secondary flex space, perfect for an executive home office, media retreat, or playroom. A Private Backyard Oasis Step through new high-end Pella French doors with upgraded, sealed blinds onto a sprawling, deep-toned deck. The outdoor space is a true paradise with a vaulted gazebo structure, sleek, integrated ceiling fan, custom paver patio layout, and lush lawn beautifully shaded by a soaring canopy of mature live oak trees. Quality Craftsmanship, Behind the Scenes: Flawless Structure: Regularly maintained exterior walls, well-kept soffits, and a home pressure-washed twice a year. Systems Upgrades: Pristine 5-year-old roof, a recently installed water heater with a 10-year warranty, and a high-quality three-step whole-house water filtration system. Premium Conveniences: Custom leaf filters on the gutters, an integrated outdoor propane grill hookup, and a dedicated mudroom with a drop-off zone and a pre-wired secondary refrigerator outlet. Devaron is the product of continuous vision, pride of ownership, and uncompromising care. Do not buy a generic box when you can own a piece of living architectural history. Truly one of the finest values and superior properties in Riviera Manor.
