A Once in a Lifetime Estate! Unmatched in Scale, Beauty, and Possibility. Rarely does a property of this magnitude come to market, and this extraordinary estate represents a truly singular opportunity for the discerning buyer. Spanning over 10,000 square feet of refined luxury living and set against more than 32 acres of breathtaking pasture land, this magnificent residence delivers an unparalleled combination of grandeur, privacy, and versatility. To our knowledge, no restrictions have been identified that would limit the property’s use, making it equally suited as a private family compound, an elegant event and wedding venue, a working equestrian or agricultural operation, or simply the ultimate private retreat. From the moment you arrive, the estate commands attention. Stately white co lumns frame the front façade in true Southern plantation fashion, setting an immediate tone of timeless elegance. The sweeping circular driveway leads you to a grand entrance where, upon stepping through the front door, you are welcomed by a breathtaking staircase that serves as the architectural centerpiece of the home. Rich hardwood floors extend throughout the residence, lending warmth and continuity to every space. The chef’s kitchen is nothing short of spectacular, offering an open and inviting floor plan that is perfect for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Gorgeous exposed wood beam ceilings add rustic character and charm, while gleaming granite countertops and an abundance of cabinetry deliver the function and finish that discerning buyers expect at this level. The living room is a showstopper in every sense of the word — a soaring stone wall stretches from floor to ceiling, anchored by a grand fireplace that creates an atmosphere of warmth and drama. Vaulted ceilings of impressive height amplify the sense of space, while an abundance of natural light pours in through generously sized windows, creating an atmosphere that is at once grand and inviting. The upper level of the home offers extensive additional living space, thoughtfully laid out to accommodate large families or multi-generational living with ease. Walk-in attic storage adds practical convenience rarely found at this scale. The oversized primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself. Every bedroom in the home is generously proportioned, but the primary bedroom stands in a class of its own. Step directly from the primary suite onto a beautifully appointed private brick patio complete with a soothing waterfall feature an idyllic setting for morning coffee or quiet evening relaxation. The primary bathroom is a true spa experience, finished with exquisite tile work from floor to ceiling, a luxurious walk-in steam shower, and a beautiful soaking garden jetted tub that invites total rejuvenation. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive. The backyard features a stunning resort-style pool complemented by a convenient and well appointed pool house, perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying long summer days in complete comfort and style. Bonus room above garage ads unlimited possibilities for an apartment, mother-in-law suite, etc. A detached outbuilding offers tremendous flexibility and could be utilized as a barn, workshop, studio, garage, or converted to suit virtually any need. The property’s pastoral acreage delivers scenic, picturesque views in every direction, offering a sense of peace and seclusion that is increasingly rare. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, a premier event destination, an equestrian property, or simply a one-of-a-kind luxury residence, this estate stands ready to fulfill the vision of its next fortunate owner. Very optimal and usable floored attic space that’s perfect for storage. Opportunities of this caliber simply do not come along twice! Property can be lowered to just below 8 acres for a lower price, see MLS ID 4374269 for more info.
