Overview

A rare offering of scale, craftsmanship, and privacy - this custom-built country estate spans 30 rolling acres of manicured grounds, complete with scattered oaks and a stocked 2-acre pond.

Built in 2006, the main residence offers over 6,200 square feet of refined living space, thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and grand entertaining. A dramatic entrance hall sets the tone with soaring ceilings, a sweeping curved staircase, and a statement chandelier, flanked by formal living and dining spaces anchored by an imported Italian marble column.

The heart of the home is an expansive great room with cathedral ceilings, seamlessly combining a chef's kitchen, living area, and breakfast space. The kitchen is outfitted with an oversized island, high-end appliances, and custom triple-stacked cabinetry, while the living room features an imported Italian fireplace. A generous breakfast area with bar seating for six completes the space.

The primary suite is privately situated on the main level and offers its own fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-quality bath with soaking tub and steam shower. Two additional bedrooms downstairs share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while upstairs includes two spacious suites, each with private ensuite baths. A dedicated media room - also designed to function as a reinforced safe room/storm room - adds both comfort and peace of mind.

Throughout the home, rich cherrywood flooring and marble tile reflect the quality of construction, complemented by custom heavy silk drapery that will remain.

Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a full wrap-around verandah with cypress beadboard ceilings, 17 sets of French doors, and 20 bronze gas lanterns creating a timeless Southern aesthetic. The saltwater pool has been recently updated with new plaster and equipment (2025), and the pool house - complete with full bath, gym space, and attached two-car garage - adds flexibility and convenience.

Additional improvements include a metal barn with over 2,200 square feet of air-conditioned living space plus ample storage, a separate jockey house with studio apartment and horse stalls, and multiple auxiliary buildings across the property.

Major systems have been thoughtfully updated, including a new roof (2021), all HVAC units replaced (2024), and full spray-foam insulation with 4x4 framing for enhanced efficiency.

A property of this caliber - offering acreage, privacy, and luxury improvements - is rarely available.
