A timeless Southern Living masterpiece, this exquisite custom home-built in 1995-rests on three adjoining lots totaling 4.16 acres, offering privacy, elegance, and gracious entertaining spaces throughout. The corner lot is enhanced by a serene wooded backdrop along the south side and rear of the property beyond the fence, creating a picturesque, estate-like setting. A circular driveway provides effortless guest access, complemented by an attached two-car garage and an additional two-car carport conveniently located across from the garage. Step inside to a spacious and thoughtfully designed main level, where the foyer opens seamlessly into a welcoming living and dining room combination, creating an inviting first impression filled with warmth and natural light. The chef's kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a center island with seating, cabinetry with pull-out drawers, and a walk-in pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is ample space for casual dining, flowing beautifully into a sun-drenched, cozy sunroom - perfect for morning coffee or relaxed gatherings. The primary ensuite is a private retreat, complete with a sitting area and a luxurious bath featuring double vanities, a tiled walk-in shower, soaking tub, private commode, and two walk-in closets. An additional main-level bedroom with a full adjoining bath also connects to a refined library/office, offering flexibility for guests or work-from-home living. Throughout the main floor, plantation shutters, custom window treatments, elegant moldings, and built-in bookcases flanking the fireplace showcase craftsmanship and classic Southern charm. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, two full baths, abundant attic storage, and a dedicated workout room connected to the attic space. Outdoor living is nothing short of spectacular. The beautifully landscaped, fully fenced backyard features an in-ground pool surrounded by paver brick, a covered patio and veranda with pergola, round columns, and wrought iron handrails-ideal for entertaining or peaceful relaxation. Completing the property is a large workshop and an additional attached outdoor building, offering endless possibilities. This move-in ready home blends refined Southern elegance with modern comfort-truly a property worthy of Architectural Digest photography.
