Behind the gate, an extraordinary 59± acre estate unfolds along a breathtaking oak tree-lined drive, creating an impressive first impression from the moment you enter the property. The drive leads to a beautiful circular driveway with a fountain at its center, while a second driveway continues around the home to the detached two-car garage. Approximately 10 acres surrounding the main residence are fenced, creating a picturesque setting with open pasture, mature trees, rolling terrain, and water features. The property includes approximately 16 acres of decade-old pine trees that were part of a CRP program, offering additional privacy, natural beauty, and potential for future timber value. The 3,268± square foot bricked main residence offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms in a desirable split-bedroom floor plan. A large covered front porch welcomes you inside to an inviting foyer, formal living room and formal dining room. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, highlighted with beautiful coffered and beamed ceilings, abundant room for informal dining and gathering, and a massive island complete with an induction cooktop. The kitchen is equipped with a built-in fridge/freezer, double wall ovens, microwave, and a farmhouse sink positioned perfectly beneath a window overlooking the backyard, pasture, and barn. Designed with entertaining in mind, the home also features a wet bar with a large wine fridge and ice maker. The laundry room includes a washer and dryer that will remain with the property. Just off the kitchen, the Florida sunroom provides an inviting additional living space with wonderful views of the backyard and pasture. The storm/safe room is accessed from the sunroom. The split-bedroom plan places two spacious secondary bedrooms and a full bathroom on one side of the home. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a second living area/den features floor-to-ceiling built-ins and rich wood-paneled walls. The entrance to the private primary suite is located here as well. The spacious primary bedroom features french doors opening to the back patio. The primary bathroom offers double closets, a generous dual-sink vanity, a walk-in shower, and a separate soaking tub. The main home is equipped with two water-heating systems: a propane-powered tankless water heater and an electric water heater, providing an efficient and versatile setup. Outside, the property continues to impress. A stocked ½-acre pond offers bass and bream and adds to the peaceful character of the acreage. Located between the home and garage, there is a large pergola draped in mature foliage creating a picturesque seating area for morning coffee, afternoon tea or relaxing with an evening cocktail. The expansive grounds provide plenty of room for enjoying the outdoors, raising animals, recreation, or simply taking in the privacy and natural beauty of the estate. The two-car garage behind the home offers far more than parking. Upstairs is a private apartment featuring a living area, bedroom, and full bathroom—ideal for guests, extended family, an office, or other flexible living arrangements. Downstairs the garage also includes one of the many storage rooms on property providing abundant space for equipment, tools, seasonal items, or recreational gear. The barn provides additional fun and functionality. 3 horse stables, 1 miscellaneous animal pin, hay storage upstairs, 2 work/storage rooms (one insulated with a wall unit for temperature control), 2 storage/shop areas (both with electric garage doors), bathroom and an entertaining/gameroom area complete with an antique wood burning fireplace, fridge and a bar to unwind and/or entertain after a long day!
