Description

This home has so much attention to detail, & so many upgrades, it literally has things you didn't even know existed! Let's start from the beginning...the driveway entrance is flanked on each side by a curved half brick wall. Drive up the long winding driveway, pass the pond & streams, & then this magnificent home enters your view. The circular driveway leads you past the lovely landscaping, to the covered front porch, with a frosted glass entrance front door with side lights & top transom window. NOW...OPEN THE DOOR TO THE HOME OF YOUR DREAMS! The curved, open, staircase, in the enormous foyer, will capture your breath. The balcony overlooks both the foyer & family room. Wondering how to change light bulbs in that chandelier? With a turn of a key, it will lower for easy accessibility. The 2 story Family Room w/built-in entertainment unit & coffered ceiling. The 3-sided gas fireplace leads into the dining area & a chef's dream kitchen w/huge double wide 8 ft center island with built-in warming drawer. There's also a trash compactor, built-in refrigerator matching the cabinets, double wall ovens, countless cabinets & drawers for easier access to items. The Sunroom is currently used as the main kitchen eating area, which leads to the attached screened in gazebo w/epoxy floors. Head back inside to your indoor, heated, salt-water pool, w/wrap around doors that lead to a beautiful stamped concrete patio, & an alarmed entry door so kids can't get to the pool without your knowledge. The pool cover is electric & is strong enough to be walked on. For added convenience, there's even a half bath in the pool room, so you don't have to go back inside wet. Next, the formal Dining room has wainscoting & glass pocket doors. Across the foyer is the office, w/built-in desk, file cabinets & storage. Across the hall is the owners suite with a sitting area w/fireplace & pocket doors, that could easily be used as a nursery area. The owners bathroom has a huge walk-in closet w/2 entrances, a corner soaking tub & his & her sinks. There's also another half bath off the foyer. Upstairs, Bedroom #2 has a Jack & Jill bathroom leading to Bedroom #3 w/a quaint window seat w/storage. Bedroom #4 has a huge walk-in closet & an entrance to the main full bathroom w/double sink, that also has access from the hallway. Let's go back downstairs via, SURPRISE, the 2nd staircase, which leads you between the kitchen & the 1st floor laundry area. Let's head down to the finished lower level. Notice the stair lights? How great is that!? The lower level has a possible Bedroom #5, a bonus room, that could be a hobby room, craft room, 2nd office, etc., another full bath, a game room area, & a wet bar w/space for a wine cooler & ice maker & all 6 stools stay. Ready for the best part of this level? How about the movie theater style media room w/elevated seating, Bose Sound System, overhead projector, 10 ft screen, over head & floor scene lighting, PLUS ALL recliners & equipment stays for the lucky buyers!!! This level also has heated floors. The large storage area is also where the mechanics of the house are...the electric panels (600 amp services), 2 on demand tankless water heater, built-in whole house humidifier, Geo-thermal heating, central vac, & the pool filtration system which keeps the pool smells from the main areas of the home. Before we head outside...did you notice all the corners of this home are rounded? How about surround sound throughout the home (not hooked up), or the gorgeous inlay on the hardwood floors! Most of the rooms on the 1st floor have double crown moldings, & tray ceilings. Outside, there are 31 serene acres, ( 25 useable acres), a 3 car attached garage w/epoxy floor, a 25x40 4 car detached carriage house garage w/2nd story floored for storage & a rough in for another bathroom. Whole house generator keeps all important items running. This home is truly one of a kind, fit for royalty, & can not be missed!
