What's special
Nestled quietly behind a private gate along the shores of Lake Charles, this stately brick residence unfolds across nearly 2,800 square feet of meticulously curated interiors. Comprising four bedrooms and three baths, the home has been completely re-envisioned. Every element has been reconsidered, and every surface redefined, with a sensibility rooted in both classic Southern architecture and contemporary refinement. Inside, a palette of warm, organic textures sets the tone. Wide-plank flooring, designer lighting, and handcrafted millwork come together in harmony. Granite countertops anchor the kitchen, where form meets function through custom cabinetry and updated appliances. The newly constructed sunroom, completed in 2024, offers a front-row view to the lake, with floor-to-ceiling glass that captures the natural light as it dances across the water. A 2022 roof crowns the residence, while a brand-new HVAC system, whole-house generator (2024), and elevated mechanicals reflect a thoughtful approach to modern living. Inside, a palette of warm, organic textures sets the tone. Step outside and the experience becomes immersive. A private dock extends over Lake Charles, offering a tranquil platform for morning meditation, sunset cocktails, or quiet contemplation. Here, waterfront living is not a concept, it is a daily ritual. Beyond the property's exquisite offerings, NE Tallahassee boasts a variety of lifestyle conveniences that enhance the living experience. Immerse yourself in Bannerman Crossing, where chic boutiques like NEAT and gourmet dining options like Blue Halo and Mom and Dad's await. Multiple Starbucks and Publix are nearby, and a short drive to family favorites like Hanger 38. Speaking of families. 5316 Velda Dairy Drive is less than two miles from some of the most sought after schools in Florida's capital-talk about convenient. Adjacent Killearn Estates features nine picturesque parks for outdoor enthusiasts, while the exquisite brand-new Killearn Country Club is a premier destination for leisure and recreation. Just a short drive north, you can revel in the charm of nearby Thomasville, Georgia, which USA Today has ranked the #1 Best Small Town Food Scene and #3 Best Small Town. This is not merely a home. It is an expression of lifestyle, a composition of comfort and elegance, privacy and precision. A residence where craftsmanship is celebrated, details are intentional, and every space invites both beauty and utility. It is, in every sense, a rare offering where quiet luxury speaks volumes by the water's edge.
