    What's special

    Private bedroom suitesNearly five private acresViews of the propertyAbundant windowsSophisticated designExpansive yet warmOversized island
    Tucked behind a private gate at the end of a quiet dead-end-road, this extraordinary Auburn estate feels like entering a world of its own. Set on nearly five private acres with no homes directly behind it, the property offers a rare combination of seclusion, scale, and sophisticated design-all within one of Auburn's most desirable areas. From the moment you enter, the home makes an impression. Expansive yet warm, every space has been thoughtfully designed to feel both elevated and inviting. At the heart of the home is a truly show stopper of a kitchen, anchored by an oversized island and surrounded by beautiful finishes, generous custom cabinetry, and exceptional workspace. It opens seamlessly into the light-filled dining and living areas, where soaring cypress ceilings abundant windows and views of the property create a setting that feels almost cinematic. Makes it hard to decide which room you'd want to sit and stay for awhile as they are all equally stunning in their own way. The floor plan offers an exceptional amount of flexibility, including two distinct living spaces that allow the home to live almost as two residences in one. The lower level provides an ideal opportunity for extended family, long term guests, or simply an entirely separate retreat, offering privacy without sacrificing connection to the main home. Private bedroom suites provide comfort for family and guests, while a dedicated office makes working from home feel anything but ordinary. Three garage spaces add another level of versatility, including an oversized RV garage and separate garage areas that provide exceptional room for vehicles, recreational equipment, and storage. This is not a home that can be fully understood by a list of rooms or square footage. It is the privacy of arriving through your own gate. The warmth of the cypress overhead. The light pouring into an unforgettable kitchen and living space. The luxury of having room for everyone and still having room for yourself.
