Woven neatly into 28 acres on North Alabama�s Monte Sano Mountain, this contemporary residence known as Northpoint makes a statement unique unto itself. A spectacular display of classical contemporary design inspired by the minimalist architecture of Franklin Lloyd Wright, this 23-room house offers sweeping views from virtually every room in the house. Award winning Washington, D.C. architect Alan Dynerman utilized natural materials from all over the world to create this masterpiece. Walls of windows framed in Honduran Mahogany and natural finishes throughout the house bring the outdoors inside to create a sense of harmony between the home and its surrounding acreage. The 17,000 square foot estate is equipped with Smart Home technology and includes six luxurious bedrooms, ten baths, a library, media room, state-of-the-art wine cellar and a third-story tower. But, perhaps the most eye-catching piece of this elaborate puzzle is the award-winning pool house with cascading infinity pools. The hot tub and two bluff-side infinity pools appear to spill over into the treetops below creating magnificent vistas from this vantage point. Certainly, the ultimate entertainment focal point features a full kitchen, living room, and workout area with two dressing rooms. Each dressing room is replete with its own shower and sauna. As the party moves inside from the breathtaking pool to the state of the art Media room every guest will enjoy the ultimate in sound and projection systems and game/audio/video systems. Also included is a ticket office and concession area perfect for special screenings and themed events. Select the perfect bottle of wine for your guests from the 2,000-bottle, state-of-the-art wine cellar with temperature control and a custom inventory system. The interior of the house flows effortlessly from room to room through the innovative use of large, gallery-styled walls made of African Pear wood, and flooring made of Honduran Mahogany, black slate and beautiful bamboo. Ever the favorite gathering place, Northpoint�s kitchen has sliding etched glass panels for separation, cork flooring, double ovens and microwaves, and an oversized pantry. The second level of the home is the location of the bedrooms and intimate family gathering areas, while the Tower, located on the third level, provides another exquisite place to entertain and play - complete with game room, small kitchen, bath, and a large roof area with its own barbeque. The unique character of Northpoint is carried over into the guest house which is an historic, restored caboose and which is native to the property with vistas all its own. Bright in color and fun in character, it is a fantastic place to house guests of all ages with its own bedroom, bath, loft, kitchen, dining room, and even its own hot tub. Professionally landscaped courtyards surrounded by natural stone walls allow for outstanding, private gathering spots outside, atop Monte Sano Mountain. After nearly five years of hard work and dedication, Northpoint was completed in 2004 and is now available for sale. The timeless qualities are unparalleled and are in comfortable company with any world-class estate. This signature property can be a fabulous personal estate, a superbly unique regional home, or a magnificent corporate retreat.
