Description

Down a private, tree-lined drive, this extraordinary 6-bedroom, 5.5-bath estate—complete with an attached one bedroom guest house—is gracefully set on 10.8 serene acres. A breathtaking approach unfolds to a circular driveway, highlighted by a stunning custom water feature. Inspired by the iconic designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, this architectural masterpiece is thoughtfully integrated into its natural surroundings, offering an exceptional balance of sophisticated entertaining and peaceful everyday living. Hallmarks of Wright’s influence are evident throughout, including expansive walls of glass, custom interior stonework, cantilevered rooflines, and dramatic windows that seamlessly bring the outdoors in. Natural materials such as cork flooring and radiant-heated ceramic tile further enhance the home’s organic aesthetic. A striking two-story foyer welcomes you with a sweeping spiral staircase, custom fabricated iron railing, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone wall that draws the eye into the impressive two-story great room beyond, where uninterrupted views of the rear grounds await. To the right of the double-door entry, a private wing offers a sitting room, bedroom with full ensuite bath, and an additional powder room—ideal for guests or multigenerational living. The opposite wing reveals a spectacular open-concept living and dining space with soaring 21-foot vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a granite-faced gas fireplace. The chef’s kitchen is beautifully appointed with dual islands, custom cherry cabinetry, quartzite countertops, and premium appliances including Thermador, Miele, and Fisher & Paykel, along with a built-in coffee system and dumbwaiter. The adjoining breakfast room is bathed in natural light, with two walls of soaring windows and direct access to a covered stone patio—perfect for morning coffee or al fresco dining. Designed with entertaining in mind, three separate walk-in pantry rooms off of the kitchen with custom cabinetry provide exceptional storage for appliances, serving pieces, and household essentials. This wing flows seamlessly into a spacious mudroom and laundry suite, complete with a ceramic dog-grooming tub and access to the attached two-car garage. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, featuring a gas fireplace, a cozy sitting area overlooking the pool and great room, and a luxurious ensuite bath with dual vanities, a custom two-person steam shower, jetted whirlpool tub, radiant heated floors, and a Toto toilet. Expansive dual walk-in closets complete the suite. Two additional bedrooms, each with ensuite baths, and a well-appointed office with custom cherry double wraparound desks and extensive built-ins provide both comfort and functionality. The walk-out lower level is designed for recreation and relaxation, offering a full kitchenette with custom cherry cabinetry and granite countertops, a bar, multiple seating areas, home gym, and two guest bedrooms with ensuite baths. Oversized doors open to one of three private patios, extending the living space outdoors. The rear grounds have been transformed into a private resort, ideal for both grand-scale entertaining and everyday enjoyment. A custom kidney-shaped saltwater pool with waterfall, tanning ledge, and spillover spa is surrounded by an expansive stamped concrete patio and lush professional landscaping. A thoughtfully designed pavilion features a full outdoor kitchen, a bar, TV lounge with stone fireplace, rooftop observation deck, full bath with changing area, and a dedicated laundry room. The guest house connects via a breezeway and offers additional living space with a kitchen, bedroom, office, and private patio, plus an attached two-car garage. Additional highlights include a solar field with sun-tracking capability and a generator, ensuring efficiency and peace of mind.
