VACATION AT HOME! Experience ultimate luxury and total seclusion in this builder's own custom hillside all-brick ranch. Nestled on an expansive 5-acre estate adjacent to a serene conservation area, this immaculate property offers a private, 1-acre stocked fish pond, mature trees, and lush perennial gardens. VALUE BONUS: The home and current improvements sit beautifully on 2 acres; the remaining 3 acres comprise a separate, buildable lot included in the sale! Step inside a massive foyer with solid oak floors and a bright skylight. The open-concept main level shines with intricately detailed, handcrafted crown molding and solid oak 6-panel doors throughout. Relax in the living room by the wood-burning fireplace with a marble hearth under a magnificent chandelier imported from France. Double French doors lead to a heated Florida room with a second skylight, opening to a new, massive composite deck with a permanent pergola and built-in brick grill. The gourmet kitchen features a center island, Corian countertops, a subway tile backsplash, white oak cabinetry, a glass pantry, stainless steel appliances, and a slider to the deck. Tucked behind double doors, the owner's suite boasts tray ceilings, a walk-in closet, deck access, and a luxury en-suite bath with a soaking tub and separate whirlpool shower. Three additional main-level bedrooms and 1.5 baths flank the opposite side for ideal privacy. The full walkout lower level serves as a true in-law arrangement, featuring completely heated laminate flooring throughout. It includes a second full kitchen with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and stainless-steel appliances, flowing seamlessly into a spacious family room with a second cozy fireplace. Two additional bedrooms, a spa bath with a Jacuzzi, and a massive game room (plumbed in-wall/floor for an easy second master suite conversion) complete this level, alongside 550 sq ft of dedicated storage. Premium outdoor amenities include a heated attached garage with a hot/cold water workstation, newly painted with new epoxy flooring. A massive 36'x24' detached pole building (fits 4+ cars/boats), attached chicken coop. A detached 330 sq ft stone spa house with an 8-person hot tub. Enjoy breathtaking southern exposure views of your pond, two waterfalls, a goldfish pond, a brick paver patio, and a screened porch with a second brick barbecue.
