A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a spectacular lakefront estate set on more than three beautifully landscaped acres, featuring over 400 feet of pristine sandy shoreline. This extraordinary residence, designed by world-renowned architect Gino Rossetti, offers privacy, luxury, and craftsmanship that must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Enhancing the waterfront lifestyle, the estate features a private dock and a lap pool, and includes four jet skis along with a wake-surfing boat, offering a turnkey recreational experience on the water. Professionally designed and decorated throughout, every detail of the home reflects exceptional quality, imported materials, and solid construction. The main level features a first-floor primary suite complete with expansive custom closets. Captivating architectural elements set this home apart, including a breathtaking conservatory with a striking water wall feature, a full-length fireguard wall safe, and a private underground tunnel that connects to the lower level. Convenience is enhanced with an elevator that services all levels of the home. The property is equipped with commercial-grade furnaces (both gas forced air and radiant heat) and mechanical systems to ensure efficiency and comfort. A Cummins whole-house generator provides added peace of mind. Rarely does a property of this caliber become available, offering an exceptional lifestyle in one of the area's most coveted waterfront settings.
