Description
Custom built in 2001, this 9,534 square foot Georgian-style estate is a showcase of timeless design and refined craftsmanship. Clad in Smithsonian brick and surrounded by professional landscaping, the home is perfectly situated on 3.4 acres overlooking the Little River, offering both privacy and stunning waterfront views. A spacious 1,107 square foot guest apartment sits above the detached three-car garage, offering two bedrooms, two full baths, a living room, and a kitchen, making it ideal as a mother-in-law suite, nanny quarters, or extended-stay guest residence.
Inside, elegant details abound with white oak floors, custom millwork, and three fireplaces creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. The chef's kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, complete with a commercial-grade range and thoughtful finishes throughout. Four spacious en suite bedrooms, five full baths, and a half bath provide comfort for family and guests. The primary suite, located on the main level, is a true retreat with sweeping water views.
The lower level of the home provides resort-style amenities, including a game/theater room, full gym with a built-in cedar-lined sauna, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and an additional two-bay garage with storage space. Outdoors, a saltwater pool overlooking the Little River offers the perfect place to relax, complemented by a cabana with a half bath and outdoor shower. For those who enjoy the water, a covered dock with two boat lifts makes time on the river effortless.
In addition, a waterfront guest cottage can be found by following a tree-lined trail. This rustic getaway features a loft bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette—perfect for visitors seeking privacy.
Altogether, this exceptional estate combines classic elegance, modern amenities, and unmatched access to the water—creating a true retreat for everyday living and grand entertaining alike. Buyer to verify all measurements.
