A paved drive leads meanders through lush pastures and the through the middle of a lake for a half-mile and ends at a stunning two-story custom home. The home has five bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a half-bath, along with plenty of space for relaxation and entertaining. This expertly planned and maintained home features a two-story living room with a built-in entertainment center, floor to ceiling stone fireplace and walls which were hand-troweled, and a specialty painting method used. All cabinets throughout the home are knotty alder and hand stained, and all wrought iron railing on the stairs and catwalk were custom made. The gourmet kitchen offers top of the line equipment including a six-burner gas range with downdraft range hood, two ovens. Additionally, there is tumbled marble with decorative accent pieces on all of the backsplash and above the range.
Large patios on the back of the house offer a space to enjoy the scenery and overlook the pool. Behind the home is an eight-foot-deep heated pool with oversized sunning shelf, two water features, a waterfall, remote controlled lighting, a grotto, built-in slide and diving board, as well as a hot tub. Surrounding the pool is a custom-made wrought iron fence with three child-proof gates. About an acre around the home is landscaped, maintained and has a 20-zone sprinkler system.
In addition to the home there is a 4,750 square-foot barn for equipment and hay storage. Stretching from the front of the home to the barn and down to the southern front of the property are lush pastures of Coastal Bermuda. Near the entrance of the property, there is a large, pivoted oat patch that spans 58 acres and there is another pivot towards the southern end of the property that is approximately 56 acres. The back and north of the property is large shade trees, native brush and some cleared pasture areas, perfect for grazing cattle.
