Property Description
Welcome to an extraordinary custom residence spanning over 7,000 square feet of luxury living, perfectly set on a premium walk-out lot with sweeping views of the pond and open green space. Nestled in a highly sought-after pool and clubhouse community within top-rated School District 301 (featuring an on-site elementary school), this home offers a tranquil, rural feel while remaining a prime commuter location. Step inside the dramatic two-story foyer, flanked by a formal living room and a large dining room with hardwood floors designed to expand for effortless hosting. The heart of the main floor is a breathtaking sunken family room featuring a majestic fireplace and a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, alongside a gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry, a massive center island, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. A flexible main-floor bedroom/office with an adjacent full bath, a giant laundry room with built-in drop-zone lockers, a powder room, and an epoxy-sealed 3-car garage with custom doors round out the primary level. Upstairs, the owner's suite serves as a true sanctuary, complete with ambient cove lighting, a private sitting room, a massive walk-in closet, and an integrated single-switch lighting system for instant home security. The spa-like master bath features a whirlpool tub, a doorless full-body shower, and a custom millwork vanity with a hidden TV in the mirror. Three additional upper-level bedrooms include one private en-suite and a shared Jack-and-Jill bath, all with walk-in closets. A grand, elevated second-floor family room flanked by lighted architectural niches can easily serve as an 8th bedroom. The incredible walk-out lower level is built for world-class entertainment, featuring a third family room with a fireplace, a full rec room with a granite-and-cabinetry kitchenette, a dedicated home gym with new flooring and mirrors, a second laundry room, a half bath, and two additional bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath. Behind double solid knotty alder doors lies the crown jewel: a custom, fully soundproofed 14-seat movie theater with tiered seating, custom lighting, and an extraordinary sound system. Step outside to enjoy the massive upper deck or the new lower luxury patio featuring a covered gazebo and outdoor TV setup overlooking the water. Outfitted with smart wiring and a lawn sprinkler system, this masterfully constructed home is an absolute must-see!
