Custom built and cherished by its original owner, this 6,456 sq. ft. (above grade) estate is set behind paired Ionic columns and blue limestone steps, backing directly onto a golf course and delivering craftsmanship rarely found on the market. The front hall soars 30 feet to a hand-painted skylight, framed by fluted Corinthian columns and two sweeping curved staircases. The sunken living room features recessed tray ceilings, multi-tiered ornate crown moulding, and a fireplace. Oak hardwood runs throughout the main level, with transom windows above every main-floor window. The kitchen is finished with custom cherry cabinetry, dedicated wine storage, Caledonia granite counters, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a Miele dishwasher. A built-in banquette anchors the eat-in area, and a granite-framed double-sided fireplace connects the kitchen to the living room. French doors lead to a stone terrace with a custom pergola and steps to the yard. A main-floor office offers 11-foot ceilings, crown moulding, and transom windows. Lutron lighting runs throughout the main level. The primary retreat is located on the main floor - a private wing with its own living room, outdoor access, hexagonal vaulted ceilings with Acanthus leaf crown moulding, a neoclassical gas fireplace with Greek key mantel and granite surround, and a 6-piece ensuite. A second main-floor bedroom also includes a full ensuite. The upper level offers 3 bedrooms and a 5-piece bath. The walkout lower level includes a second kitchen, 5-piece bath, one bedroom, a den, two walk-in closets, a gym with sauna, cold storage, and additional living space with its own fireplace and garage entrance. In total: 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and 3 fireplaces across 3 finished levels. Updates include newer mechanicals, a sprinkler system, and a heated garage. A rare offering combining architectural grandeur and an unbeatable golf course backdrop. See the multimedia link for video tour, floor plans and drone shots.
