Description

Located on a private 2.5-acre lot in Wimbledon Farms, this waterfront estate home, designed by Cathy Purple Cherry and constructed by West River Builders, is truly a masterpiece in design and quality. The 3-level home – complete with elevator -- takes full advantage of its waterfront setting that includes 400 ft of shoreline. Facing Quiet Waters Park, the ever-changing view includes brilliant fall foliage, deer by the water’s edge, and osprey circling overhead. Stroll down to the 100 ft private pier with deep-water slips. There’s 7 ft water depth at the dock; Harness Creek is a recognized hurricane hole so this is the perfect spot for boats to ride out a storm. The 20 ft x 40 ft saltwater pool has a spacious ipe deck and two Hanso pergolas provide shade with wonderful water views. Six bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath, a gourmet kitchen, and wrap-around screen porches and decks provide space for both casual living and grand entertaining.

Upon entering, there is a gracious paneled foyer that opens to the living room. With Brazilian cherry floors, a gas fireplace with marble surround, and built-in bookcases, this room has fabulous water views and opens to one of the screened porches on this level that invite outdoor living.
