Set on a private 1.61-acre lot along a quiet no-outlet road, this custom all-brick estate offers over 7,400 square feet of living space, exceptional craftsmanship, and resort-style amenities. Designed for both grand entertaining and everyday comfort, the home features energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling, a 35KW whole-house generator with automatic transfer switch, and an oversized insulated garage with high ceilings. A dramatic two-story foyer with travertine flooring welcomes you inside, where dual staircases, a soaring great room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and expansive windows create an impressive yet inviting atmosphere. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with commercial-grade stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, an oversized center island, and a sun-filled bay window breakfast area. The main-level primary suite serves as a private retreat with a sitting room, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath. Upstairs, a second primary suite offers outstanding flexibility for multigenerational living or long-term guests, accompanied by two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a convenient second-floor laundry hookup. The expansive walkout lower level features rough-in plumbing for a future bath and multiple access points, providing endless possibilities for customization and additional living space. Outside, enjoy a private backyard oasis highlighted by a Caribbean-style swimming pool, mature landscaping, and heated pool potential with an existing 500-gallon underground propane tank. Additional features include updated well equipment, including pump, pressure tank, and filtration system. Combining privacy, scale, quality construction, and modern infrastructure, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity just minutes from shopping, dining, and major commuter routes—with no HOA.
