When only the exceptional will do! This estate home combines distinctive architecture with understated elegance, designed by renowned architect William Hirsch and built by BRW Builders with uncompromising quality. Offering over 8,200 sq. ft. of living space, with three private bedroom suites in the main home plus a fully appointed guest apartment, this residence is one of Governors Club's most remarkable offerings.
Nestled within the prestigious gated golf community, the home enjoys unparalleled GOLF COURSE VIEWS and lives like a private retreat. The chef's kitchen features Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, dual dishwashers, steam oven, drawer microwave, marble backsplash, and abundant storage. The dramatic living room showcases a 14-foot coffered ceiling and opens to a private terrace ideal for entertaining.
The ELEVATOR provides effortless access to all levels, including the luxurious primary retreat with spa-inspired bath, two expansive dressing rooms, and a floor-to-ceiling bow window overlooking the grounds. The lower level offers a unique birds-eye maple bar, custom glass wine display, stone fireplace, screened porch, and access to the saltwater cocktail pool and gardens — your own resort-style escape.
The guest apartment features a kitchenette, living room, renovated bath, and spacious bedroom — perfect for extended family, an au pair, or visiting friends.
Private, peaceful, and irreplaceable — a home of this caliber could not be reproduced today for anywhere near the asking price. A rare opportunity within Governors Club.
