Perched atop prestigious Highland Road, this breathtaking, classically appointed estate exudes elegance and grandeur. With its stately facade, soaring columns, and meticulous architectural details, this estate sitting on just over 1 acre of land is a true masterpiece. Upon arrival, you and your guests are warmly welcomed through white brick columns and immediately greeted by 150 year old soaring oak trees. Inside, you’ll find expansive living spaces, soaring ceilings, and exquisite finishes that blend timeless charm with modern sophistication. Walls of windows invite natural light to illuminate the interiors while offering picturesque views of the lush surround. Designed for both comfort and entertainment, the home boasts a gourmet chef’s kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless appliances including exposed brick arches, Taj Mahal countertops and so much more. A stunning formal dining room and massive living room with one of the 3 fireplaces in the home are both adorned with black hardwood flooring. Just off of the kitchen is the lavish primary suite complete with a spa-like ensuite bath with a standalone soaking tub, walk in shower, and Quartzite counters, that lead into a massive closet. Up the grand staircase, you will find 3 generously sized bedrooms plus a landing area. Step outside to your private resort-style oasis, where a sparkling pool recently resurfaced serves as the centerpiece of a meticulously landscaped and lighted backyard. Whether hosting lavish gatherings or enjoying a peaceful retreat, the sprawling patio, a spacious gazebo complete with a fireplace and serene green spaces make this home an entertainer’s dream. With prime location along one of the most sought-after streets in town, this estate is more than a home—it’s a statement of luxury, sophistication, and timeless beauty.
