Home-builder Mark Teitelbaum of Seabrook Homes has spent the past thirty years learning from the masters of haute architecture in the region.

He has now built a masterpiece that is the product of years of study of the interplay of art and architecture, harmony with ones surroundings and the relationship of light and space.

Now is the time to capitalize on his crowning achievement, The Manors of Schoettler Valley, on which will sit 9 stone-clad manors. The site, a former apple orchard is completely surrounded by mature trees and foliage and a four acre buffer of common ground.. .

This is the last opportunity to purchase a newly built fine custom home in the Parkway Central School District.  With a reputation of graduating students with above average composite scores on standardized tests and active parent involvement, the District has been “Accredited with Distinction” the highest rating that can be achieved from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education . Cheryl Flaherty, a Seabrook representative, commented that the school district’s reputation, which is far reaching is a major drawing card for the cul de sac community and observed that would-be homebuyers have postponed building their dream home elsewhere in favor of keeping their children in the Parkway Central school system.

The hallmark of this home is its architectural flair and elegance, combining the newest in technology and use of space with time honed traditional workmanship and finish.  The home’s features are above and beyond any other home in the area. The kitchen, breakfast room and hearth room with a stone hearth exude a serene solidity. Seabrook offers features only seen in multimillion dollar mansions, such as, in the kitchen alone, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf range, two Wolf ovens, two environmentally friendly Asko dishwashers and a Wolf warming drawer. The highest grade granite surfaces cover the breakfast bar, the center island, the butler’s pantry and the wet bar that are custom selected to compliment the premium raised panel wood cabinetry with 42” upper wall cabinets.

The master-bath also is a tranquil oasis with a granite topped cappuccino bar with Kohler under-mount sink. The open, custom tiled shower-space is a naturally lit technological marvel with a Kohler programmable 6 head shower system. Separate granite topped counter space exists for each bath user and a separate, enclosed private area for the toilet.

Throughout the house are Kohler plumbing fixtures, Andersen wood windows, vaulted ceilings, deeply burnished glossy dark hardwood floors, a mudroom with lockers that leads to a three-car garage .Foundations are 8’10” to maximize lower level finishes for each of the nine walk-out home sites.

Seabrook will be offering three striking floor plans. The Stratford display home is a stunning 4,400 square foot, 1.5 story home replete with two-story great room, spectacular main floor master suite with coffered ceiling, upper level junior suite and two additional bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill style bath. The Canterbury is a glorious ranch with approximately 3,300 square feet and highlighted by a gourmet kitchen anchored by a center island able to accommodate eight. Lastly is the Devonshire, a 3,920 square foot 1.5 story home with its own luxury architectural styles.  Base-priced, incredibly from $775,000 and 897,500 respectively, all plans are enticing designs that are as functional as they are fashionable and include an incredible array of amenities, including 3 car side-entry garages.

Seabrook generously includes as standard, two-panel doors with lever handles, custom staircases with balusters and security systems..

Each home site has been thoughtfully planned to create a theatrical backdrop for your custom home.  Your own refined sensibilities can be brought to bear in working with Seabrook to customize your own manor.

One of the most delightful features of this site is that it is secluded.  There is no chance whatsoever of having a lot that abuts a major thoroughfare. This place is private. To get there, take Chesterfield Parkway South to the outer road of highway forty to right on Schoettler, right on Grantley, left on Schoettler Valley to left on Squire’s Way to the display. Traffic here, is a non-issue as the site is completely self-contained and away from any major through street.  Directions can also be found on Seabrook’s website: www.seabrookstl.com
 
And while removed from traffic, the site is conveniently located near Chesterfield Mall, the Valley and, most delightfully the Crossing at Town and Country the  new complex that includes Whole Foods on Clayton Road and Woodsmill.

Stop by now to view a manor home that possesses art without artifice. Enjoy exploring a new home with an old soul.
