Completely transformed in 2023! Redesigned flow, renovation, and exceptional in every detail, this elegant, professionally designed home, located in Bannockburn Estates, is unique in style and design through thoughtful visual connection to the surrounding exterior spaces including a 1.25+ acre double-lot backing to beautiful Booze Creek Stream Valley Park, a conservation area. The inviting circular driveway provides easy access to the almost 6,000 sq ft main level living area and over 3,000 sq ft lower walk-out level. Welcomed by dramatic lighting and marble floored foyer, the spaces are expansive yet intimate with exceptional design, detail and quality. There is a formal living room with vaulted ceiling, oak beams, a gas fireplace, a formal dining room with coffered oak ceiling that says dinner party, a butler’s pantry, large walk-in pantry, and mudroom. The kitchen is gorgeous with high end appliances, extra refrigerator drawers, two dishwashers, double-oven, unique built-ins, island, table spaced and open to the soaring oak-beamed ceiling in the family room with gas fireplace, deck, and screened in porch featuring a wood-burning fireplace. The floors on the main level are primarily European French oak engineered hardwood and special touches throughout include built-ins, special lighting, and thoughtful grand hallway leading to the four main-level bedroom suites. The primary suite is a dream come true with the very personal connection to the outdoor spaces and exceptional design and light coming from three sides. It includes a large deck off the primary suite overlooking the property. There are dual walk-in closets with custom built-ins. The master bath is beautiful in every detail, dressing table, dual vanities, soaking tub with amazing views, large steam shower, privacy closet, and four-person sauna. The three additional main-level suites, each with private uniquely designed full bathrooms and walk-in closets. The grand hallway has a well-organized laundry room with plenty of storage in a central location. The renovation, redesign, and expansion were completed in 2023.

The house together with the accessory unit is almost 10,000 square feet. The lower level is great for entertaining with a built-in wine tasting room, media room, large recreation room with a built-in bar, beverage cooler, and refrigerator, a gas fireplace, powder room, a bonus room that would be a great gym/office/hobby room with an outside entrance.
