Prepare to be captivated by this extraordinary, just-completed modern farmhouse—an architectural showstopper offering style, comfort, and refined living. Situated on a private, tree-lined 1-acre lot and custom crafted by Waverly Homes, this is more than a home…it’s a lifestyle experience filled with wow-factors at every turn. A side-entry garage anchors the exterior, while a welcoming front porch features a herringbone brick paver patio beneath a cathedral-style cover with warm wood underlay and striking chandelier lighting. A bold black Therma-Tru door with sidelights invites you into an interior that stuns from the start. Step into a sun-drenched two-story foyer with lofty windows and wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring that stretches across both levels. The flowing layout is designed for grand-scale living and unforgettable entertaining. The main living area is open and spectacular, seamlessly connecting to a chef’s dream kitchen dressed in shimmering quartz countertops and crisp white 42” soft-close cabinetry. Outfitted with professional-grade black stainless ZLINE appliances, including a 6-burner gas range with grill, double oven, and matching hood. At the center, an oversized island features a Moen farmhouse sink, built-in microwave, and dishwasher—offering ample prep and gathering space. Nearby, a walk-in Butler’s pantry provides even more storage, cabinetry, and room for a second fridge. All five bedrooms have private ensuite baths and walk-in closets, two of which are conveniently on the main level. The first-floor primary suite is a true retreat, with private screened porch access, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-style bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, dual vanities with quartz counters and makeup station, lighted vanity mirror, and a massive frameless walk-in shower with rain head, handheld spray, pebble stone flooring, and bench seating. Also on the main level: a generously sized guest suite with cozy sitting area, a spacious laundry room with cabinetry and sink, and a stylish powder room for guests. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a loft that overlooks the foyer and connects to three additional ensuite bedrooms—each its own private retreat. The crown jewel of the upper level is the remarkable great room, designed for entertaining with a gas fireplace, surround sound, cathedral wood ceiling, 60” fan, wet bar, wine fridge, custom cabinetry, and its own powder bath. A flexible bonus room—ideal for a gym, office, or playroom—completes the second level. Enjoy the serenity of this tucked-away location just minutes from historic downtown Milton. This is not your average new construction. With premium finishes, designer details, and finely curated living spaces throughout, this modern farmhouse delivers the total package—bold, beautiful, and absolutely unforgettable.
