For Retreat and Privacy Seekers – A Unique, Renovated Home with Exceptional Features This extraordinary home is perfect for those seeking tranquility and privacy. It boasts three spacious primary suites, with extensive renovations throughout, including a NEW roof, NEW Septic landscaping, hardscaping, and numerous upgrades to the home and pool/guest house. The home offers a picturesque view from the bow window—an ideal spot to relax with a book, unwind, and enjoy the scenery. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring stunning white cabinetry, new stainless steel appliances, beautiful granite countertops, a grand center island, a large buffet with ample cabinetry, and elegant marble flooring. Off the kitchen, you’ll find a built-in desk, pantry with a sink, and a laundry area that leads to the oversized three-car garage with a storage room, or out to the patio. The main residence includes a spacious adjoining great room, which opens to a dining area with original hardwood floors and an additional bay window overlooking the patio. The wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character to the space, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The main-floor luxury suite features an electric fireplace with remote control, French doors for natural light and fresh air, and a veranda where you can enjoy your morning coffee. The en-suite bathroom offers a spa therapy tub large enough for two, with soothing jets to help you relax and unwind. Alternatively, you can enjoy the walk-in shower, complete with a bench, niche, and five shower heads. Each suite comes with a generously sized walk-in closet. A newly installed powder room completes the main floor. The lower level is equally impressive with gorgeous new marble floors and a pellet stove fireplace to keep you warm on those cold winter days. Sliding doors open to a lower patio that overlooks the serene trees and nature surrounding the property. Two additional primary suites are located here—one featuring a jetted tub, walk-in shower with a bench, three shower heads, and plenty of additional cabinetry and vanity space. The third primary bedroom offers a large vanity, a cubical shower with a RainSoft shower head and two shower wands, a walk-in closet, and enough space for a sitting area with French doors overlooking the trees. Outside, you’ll find a stunning in-ground gated pool with new tiles, complemented by hardscaping that’s perfect for entertaining. The pool house includes a full kitchen, bathroom, and shower. The meticulously designed landscaping and hardscaping enhance the property’s beauty, and there’s ample parking, including a three-car garage and space to accommodate at least 10 additional vehicles. A large shed provides even more storage space. Additional Features: Approximate square footage and measurements—subject to verification. Seller offering to hold a mortgage for the buyer at a 5% rate.
