About this home
Welcome to an extraordinary all-brick estate set within the prestigious gates of Wynstone, where timeless architecture meets resort-caliber living. Move-in ready with a newer roof/new mechanicals! Perfectly positioned on nearly 1.5 acres at the end of a serene cul-de-sac and set high above the street for added prominence and privacy, this magnificent 5-bedroom, 5.3-bath residence offers over 13,000 square feet of uncompromising luxury and breathtaking golf course views from nearly every vantage point in the home. From the moment you enter, a grand foyer crowned with a soaring tray ceiling and dazzling statement chandelier creates an unforgettable first impression, introducing the refined craftsmanship and architectural artistry found throughout. The original builders spared no expense-solid wood doors, exceptional millwork, and high-end finishes speak to the enduring quality and thoughtful design poured into every detail. HEATED FLOORS are throughout the whole home, including in the garage and the indoor basketball sport court-an impressive feature rarely found. Designed for both elegant entertaining and elevated everyday living, the home unfolds with beautifully appointed formal living and dining rooms ideal for intimate dinners or grand-scale gatherings. At the heart of the home, the gourmet chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, anchored by an expansive island with breakfast bar seating, professional-grade stainless steel appliances, a generous walk-in pantry, and seamless access to the outdoor living spaces-perfectly positioned to capture the home's gorgeous golf course vistas. The adjacent family room is nothing short of spectacular, showcasing a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, cathedral ceiling, custom dry bar, and walls of windows that flood the space with natural light. Just beyond, a sun-drenched sunroom with a private hot tub provides year-round relaxation in a setting that feels both luxurious and secluded. The main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary unlike any other, featuring a remarkable two-level loft design, serene sitting area, oversized walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath complete with dual vanities, a soaking clawfoot tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower. A richly appointed private office or library impresses with a coffered ceiling, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and exclusive backyard access-creating a refined and tranquil work-from-home retreat. Upstairs, 4 additional bedroom suites each feature their own private ensuite baths and expansive walk-in closets, complemented by imaginative lofts, bonus spaces, and hidden retreats rarely found in luxury homes. A spacious central playroom anchors the third level, seamlessly connecting the various lofts and flexible spaces to create a dynamic and functional living environment. A spectacular in-law or guest suite includes its own lounge with built-in sauna and overlooks the home's show-stopping indoor half-court basketball court-an extraordinary amenity that truly sets this estate apart. The full finished English basement is complete with an expansive recreation room with fireplace and wet bar, dedicated game room, exercise studio, huge cedar closet, and a private home theater delivering a true cinematic experience. Outdoors, the nearly 1.5-acre setting offers exceptional privacy and sweeping golf course views, with grand Bluestone patio and two outstanding locations ideal for a future pool-creating the opportunity to design a true backyard resort. Completing the estate is a 5 car garage with the attached INDOOR BASKETBALL COURT, allowing for year-round recreation and convenience. 2021 Roof with new gutters and leaf guard!! All of the bedrooms in the home are en-suites. Grand in scale yet thoughtfully designed for luxurious comfort, this remarkable residence offers an unparalleled lifestyle of elegance, privacy, superior craftsmanship, and endless possibility-all within one of the region's most exclusive gated golf course communities!...
