Welcome Home where refined living meets a true water driven lifestyle. Set on nearly three private acres within one of Smithfield's most exclusive lake communities, this custom-built estate offers a rare blend of luxury, recreation, and preserved natural surroundings. Centered around a premier water ski lake, this community was designed for those who crave life on the water. And here, access comes easy. The HOA provides a shared community boat, allowing you to fully enjoy water skiing along with boating, fishing, paddle boarding, wakeboarding, swimming, and tubing without the expense or upkeep of ownership. A sandy beach area invites laid-back afternoons by the water, while community amenities like volleyball, tetherball, and a playground create space for connection, activity, and fun for all ages. Beyond the lake, over 3 miles of scenic trails wind throughout the community perfect for morning walks or evening runs while breathtaking sunset views reflect across the water each night. Surrounded by HOA owned land, the setting offers a heightened sense of privacy, protection, and long-term tranquility that's increasingly hard to find. Inside, every detail reflects intentional design and elevated comfort. Expansive, light filled living spaces flow effortlessly into a gourmet kitchen built for gathering. Multiple primary suites provide flexibility for multigenerational living or hosting guests with ease. Advanced smart tech HVAC zoning, HRV systems, and energy efficient construction ensure year round comfort, performance, and peace of mind. Outdoors, the experience continues wide open space, natural beauty, and a sense of retreat without isolation all just minutes from downtown Smithfield and a convenient drive to Raleigh. This isn't just a home. It's a private retreat. It's a water ski lifestyle. It's the life you've been working toward.
