Description

Rarely does a home of this caliber become available in Haile Plantation. Situated on a spacious .66-acre homesite, just a short walk from Haile Village Center and Haile Market Square, this nearly 4,400-square-foot residence offers an extraordinary combination of scale, sophistication, and thoughtful design. Featuring five bedrooms, and five bathrooms, a dedicated study, expansive bonus room, and three-car garage, the home underwent an extensive, designer-led renovation that brought a remarkable level of cohesion and refinement to its interiors. Beautiful Brazilian cherry hardwood floors extend throughout both levels of the home, establishing a sense of warmth and continuity rarely found at this price point. At the heart of the residence, a stunning kitchen showcases extensive two-tone cabinetry, quartz countertops, premium KitchenAid Professional appliances, a dedicated wine bar and coffee bar, and a generous breakfast area with room to seat eight. A formal dining room complements the kitchen with matching custom cabinetry and coordinated designer lighting, creating a seamless aesthetic throughout the home’s principal entertaining spaces. Overlooking the kitchen, the inviting living room features extensive illuminated built-ins and a striking double-sided fireplace shared with the covered outdoor living area. The home’s exceptional functionality continues with an oversized walk-in pantry, custom drop zone with built-in bench, appliance garage with abundant cabinetry, and an expansive laundry room offering extensive counter space and hanging storage. Privately situated beyond the main living spaces, the expansive first-floor primary suite is a retreat unto itself. French doors open directly to the pool, while a generous sitting area offers another place to unwind. The reimagined primary bathroom features a remarkable 10-foot double vanity, freestanding soaking tub, and oversized frameless glass shower with dual rainfall showerheads. An equally impressive walk-in closet extends approximately 15 feet deep. Across the home, a secluded first-floor guest suite with convenient access to a full bathroom serving the pool area completes the main level. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms surround a spacious central loft and bonus room, offering an ideal secondary living space, media room, or recreation area. Two bedrooms enjoy private en-suite bathrooms, while the third bathroom is thoughtfully positioned to also accommodate the upstairs common area. Outdoors, the property transforms into a private resort. An expansive covered lanai offers dedicated dining and lounging areas centered around the outdoor side of the double-sided fireplace. Beyond, a sparkling pool and spa are complemented by a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with granite countertops, beverage refrigerator, and sink. An extensive paver terrace with a built-in gas fire feature provides yet another inviting setting for entertaining beneath the trees. The unusually generous .66-acre lot affords a level of outdoor space seldom available within the community. Set within one of Gainesville’s most established and beloved neighborhoods, with the boutiques, restaurants, cafés, and everyday conveniences of Haile Village just moments away, this is a property that offers far more than beautiful finishes. It is a rare opportunity to enjoy the space of an estate, the convenience of village living, and the distinction of a home unlike anything else currently offered in Haile Plantation.
