Property Description
Welcome to this exquisite home where ambiance graces you through this private setting, centrally located in the heart of Highland! This 6 bedroom, 6 bathroom 9000+ sf home has an open floor plan and a grand two story foyer. The formal Dining Room is perfect for dinner parties or quaint gatherings featuring the stunning decorative tray ceiling, wall sconces, picture frame trim, chair rail, hard wood flooring and a beautiful chandelier accentuated by an ornamental medallion. The formal Living room leads you into the breathtaking Conservatory with walls of windows allowing mother nature’s sundrenched warmth and light to freely flow throughout. The Gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream featuring an enormous center island, under cabinet lighting, granite countertops and Thermador cooking appliances, allowing ample space for culinary adventures! The Kitchen is open to the Great Room that invites you to cozy up in front of the two-sided stone fireplace during those chilly Fall or Winter days to be enjoyed with family and friends as you create memories of story-telling, game playing, movie night or entertaining friends and family. The Great Room features a beautiful tray ceiling, access to the screened-in porch, and also opens to a large breakfast room with deck access. A private two station office/work area is off the Kitchen, and has proven to be a great space for homework or personal affairs. This area leads to a large walk-in pantry. The expansive screened-in porch with fireplace provides a spectacular space for entertaining, or a quiet meditative atmosphere with spectacular pastoral views. First floor bedroom can also be used as a large office/den. Just outside of the first floor bedroom is a full bath.
As you venture past the Kitchen, you will discover the mudroom with a custom bench and cabinetry ideal for storage that leads you to the oversized three car garage. From the mudroom is a breezeway with access to the front driveway as well as an access door to the rear deck. As you continue through the breezeway, you will enter the spacious In-law suite with Dining room, Living room, Kitchen, large Bedroom and full bath. This in-law suite has another access door open to the expansive deck with gazebo overlooking the beautiful back yard.
The private upper level of the main house has a spacious primary bedroom providing a serene retreat with large sitting room and luxury bathroom with soaking tub, separate shower for two, private water closet, separate dual sinks, his/her walk-in closets and leads you into a private exercise room, prayer room or nursery. There are two additional spacious bedrooms with their own private bathrooms and private sitting rooms. The Loft library could easily be converted to another spacious bedroom. The large laundry room with built-in cabinetry and countertops complete this level.
The Lower level is an exceptional area for entertaining, family gatherings and Sunday Football games! The full-sized antique built-in bar is also great for ice cream parties, or a popcorn station for movie and game night. The recreation area with pool table connects to the family room with theatre seats, built-in speakers, panoramic gas fireplace, a hobby/craft area, game room/office/den and a spacious bedroom with full bath. The walk out leads to a large flagstone patio with stone retaining wall, built-in gas grill, wood burning stone fire pit and hot tub. You don’t have to go anywhere else to have fun, when this house has it all!
This 10+ acre lot is located at the end of a cul-de-sac and is very private. The back yard has a delicate mix of lush landscape allowing nature and wildlife to share a beautiful existence with you. As you wander through the wooded area, you will come upon a meandering stream where the sounds of tranquility will fill your senses. The property is lined with a partially fenced area. Great location with River Hill Schools and close to major commuting routes. Perfection personified!
