Tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac, this exceptional estate is set behind gates on 26.561 sqft feet of beautifully landscaped grounds. A brick courtyard framed by lush greenery and flowering hedges creates an inviting arrival, introducing a residence defined by timeless classical architecture, impressive scale, exceptional privacy, and thoughtful craftsmanship. The dramatic entry opens to soaring ceilings, peg-and-groove hardwood floors, oversized crown moldings, and richly detailed solid wood beams. The interiors offer an impressive collection of formal and informal spaces, including a grand living room with a striking stone fireplace, elegant dining room, inviting family room with a custom wet bar, and temperature-controlled wine cellar. The chef's kitchen combines function and design with an expansive center island, professional 6-burner Viking range with double ovens, dual dishwashers, soft-close cabinetry, and French doors opening to a covered patio for effortless indoor/outdoor living. The generously proportioned primary suite features a private sitting area, fireplace, two custom walk-in closets, and a balcony overlooking the lush grounds. The adjoining spa-inspired bath includes a soaking tub, dual vanities, and an expansive walk-in shower with additional vanity space. Outside, the grounds unfold as a private magical garden retreat, surrounded by mature trees, flowering landscapes, and verdant greenery. A sparkling pool and dramatic three-tier fountain anchor the setting, while multiple conversation areas, expansive lawns, and a charming gazebo enveloped in creeping fig provide an idyllic backdrop for both large-scale entertaining and quiet relaxation. Among the estate's many distinctive details are dual staircases, charming window seats, leaded and stained-glass windows, abundant storage, a gas generator, and a three-car direct-access garage. A truly remarkable library serves as one of the home's architectural highlights, featuring extensive imported cabinetry and millwork, inlaid flooring, a fireplace, a steel-framed dome ceiling with skylight, and a striking copper dome exterior complemented by copper gutters throughout. A rare combination of architectural character, sophisticated craftsmanship, privacy, and livability, this extraordinary estate offers a setting equally suited to gracious everyday living and memorable entertaining.
