This custom-built rancher sits atop a gently sloping hill, perfectly positioned to offer sweeping views of the nearly 13-acre property that surrounds it, accessible only via a shared maintenance drive that meanders through dense woodlands. Designed for privacy and tranquility, the home is embraced by expansive wooded landscapes that stretch in every direction, lined with plantings of mountain laurels, and creating a secluded, peaceful retreat, yet still allowing for plenty of natural light. Outdoors, the home boasts a variety of luxurious amenities designed for relaxation and entertainment including an in-ground heated saltwater pool featuring a beautifully crafted stone wall with integrated waterfall, along with an exceptional lanai with high ceilings, motorized screens and stacked stone wood burning fireplace overlooking the pool. Stepping inside, the home is the epitome of luxury and innovation, where no detail has been overlooked. Designed with modern living in mind, the home is fully equipped with smart technology, allowing for seamless control of appliances, garage doors, security, and climate from anywhere you may travel. The craftsmanship and materials used throughout the home reflect a "spared no expense" approach, offering the finest in comfort and convenience, including solid wood doors with bronze oiled hardware, hand painted walls, accent ship lap walls, pocket and barn doors, and much more! The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace with ship lap that stretches from floor to ceiling and 9 ft sliding glass doors that open directly to the backyard lanai. The kitchen boasts a center island topped with luxurious quartz, combining beauty and durability, double ovens, pot filler, 6 burner gas stove, and drawer microwave. Beyond the main kitchen you’ll find a coffee/wine bar, complete with sink, and a spacious walk-in pantry. The private owner’s suite, set in its own separate wing of the home, is designed for ultimate comfort. The bedroom is generously sized with large windows offering serene views outside, tray ceiling, and spa-like en suite bath featuring porcelain tile, double vanities, mirrors with LED lighting, shower with dual showerheads and wands, and jetted tub, along with an enormous walk-in closet. On the opposite side of the home is an additional wing designed for guests or family members. This wing features two well-appointed guest bedrooms, one of which boasts close-up views of the pool. These rooms also share a full bath conveniently located in-between, beautifully finished with high-quality materials, including a quartz-topped vanity, modern fixtures, and a combination tub and shower. The lower level features a semi-finished basement (with heat, outlets and bath rough-in), adding both functionality and versatility. There’s also a unique side entry, drive-in workshop designed for tractors, ATVs, or other equipment, making it a dream for hobbyists, landscapers, or those with a love of outdoor projects. The workshop’s direct access to the outdoors is perfect for easy loading and unloading, blending practicality with the luxury of this extraordinary home. Another notable feature is the oversized garage, providing ample space for vehicles, along with walk-in storage closet with utility sink. Despite its secluded location, the home is just a short drive away from vibrant local shopping centers and a variety of dining options, and other essential services are all conveniently accessible, allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds: a peaceful haven in the woods with the conveniences of urban life just moments away.
