This is no ordinary Inverness estate. Exquisite in design and timeless in execution, this exceptional residence showcases remarkable craftsmanship, elegant architectural details, and luxurious finishes throughout, including a 3 stop elevator! Perfectly positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac in one of McIntosh's most coveted locations, this is a property that truly stands apart. The stately exterior, highlighted by a circular paver brick driveway and impeccable curb appeal, creates an impressive yet welcoming first impression. Step inside and the home's grand scale and sophisticated design immediately unfold. A greeting area opens to a dramatic two-story foyer introducing the thoughtfully designed floor plan. An impressive Great Room commands attention with soaring beamed ceilings, exceptional volume, and the first of four fireplaces, creating an inviting space equally suited for entertaining or everyday living. The elegant Living Room offers exceptional flexibility, featuring a built-in desk area, the second fireplace, abundant natural light, and generous seating space, ideal as a refined sitting room, executive home office, or library. Nearby, the formal Dining Room provides a gracious setting for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. Designed to be the heart of the home, the expansive island kitchen is certain to become everyone's favorite gathering place. A substantial center island with seating, abundant custom cabinetry, expansive countertops, a large walk-in pantry, and an oversized dining area combine to create a space that is as functional as it is beautiful. Just beyond, the spacious three-season room offers another exceptional living area, complete with a wet bar and direct access to the expansive deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped backyard, creating the perfect setting for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. Access to the second level is both distinctive and convenient, with front and rear staircases as well as a private three-stop elevator serving all levels of the home. The luxurious Primary Suite is a true retreat, featuring a vaulted ceiling, the third fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and a luxury bath. The upper level also includes a private en-suite bedroom, two bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, a fifth potential en-suite bedroom, and the convenience of a second-floor laundry room. The finished lower level is equally impressive. Ten-foot poured foundation walls create an open, airy atmosphere, while a unique skylight feature and walk-up staircase provide natural light. This level offers a spacious Recreation Room anchored by the fourth fireplace, an expansive entertainment and gaming area with a custom wet bar, an exercise room, a full bath, and abundant storage. A host of exceptional amenities further distinguish this remarkable home, including a heated four-car garage, natural gas generator, elevator, new composite roof installed in 2023, and an expansive backyard rarely found in today's luxury market. Every detail reflects thoughtful design and enduring quality, making this an extraordinary opportunity in one of Inverness' most prestigious neighborhoods.
