Custom Charleston-inspired lake-front estate on 3.22 private acres in Sunset Lake. Built by Artisan Homes, this distinctive residence welcomes you along a long wooded drive to a stunning 60-foot rocking-chair front porch with gas lanterns. Inside, Brazilian cherry hardwoods, graceful arched openings, detailed millwork, soaring ceilings, solid wood doors with Baldwin Brass hardware, and custom cabinetry showcase exceptional craftsmanship. The dramatic two-story great room features extensive built-ins and a Palladian window overlooking the grounds. A richly paneled study with cherry cabinetry, pocket doors, and a gas fireplace, and a spacious formal dining room both open through working French doors to the front porch. The kitchen features a large island, separate pantry, Sub-Zero, Dacor, and Asko appliances, and opens to the keeping room, light-filled sunroom, and breakfast area. The private first-floor primary retreat includes two walk-in closets, a dressing room, heated bath floors, a soaking tub, a three-head shower, and direct access to the elevated balcony connecting the great room, sunroom, and kitchen area. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms offer access to full baths, while a dramatic catwalk with interior balconies overlooks both the great room and stately foyer. A covered breezeway leads to the detached three-car garage with approximately 827 square feet of finished bonus space above, including a wet bar and full bath. Outdoors, enjoy expansive brick terraces, covered living areas, an outdoor kitchen, established gardens, a fountain, and a wooded rock trail leading toward Sunset Lake. The private 125-acre lake offers kayaking and non-motorized boating, with community amenities including a clubhouse, walking trails, boardwalk and pier, boathouse, and boat storage. An extraordinary combination of architecture, acreage, privacy, outdoor living, and lake life. See the virtual tour for more information. Lower taxes and HOA fees.
