EXQUISITE PRIVATE ESTATE IN HISTORIC ROSWELL. This extraordinary gem offers an unparalleled living experience. This stunning 8000+ sq ft estate is nestled on two acres of pristine land in a breathtaking 100-year-old-growth forest providing unmatched natural beauty & near complete privacy in the heart of the city. This architectural masterpiece includes 5 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms in a seamless blend of luxury & nature all within walking distance of two top-tier private schools + easy access to the highway. UNMATCHED NATURAL BEAUTY AND PRIVACY. The home sits alone on a full city block of frontage - 300 sf of windows present breathtaking panoramic forest views from the moment you cross the threshold of the custom front door entrance. This estate is the epitome of privacy bordering a further ten acres of untouched land by Vickery Creek within walking distance of Rowell's Oxbo Park trails that lead to the famed Old Mill, Vickery Creek Waterfall w/covered bridge. THOUGHTFUL DESIGN. From the multiple poured concrete driveways to the concrete 4-car garage w/an additional 3-car parking pad, this property was designed for maximum convenience, durability & longevity. Step through a tranquil Japanese Zen garden into an expansive open floorplan with 20-foot vaulted ceilings. Hardwood ceiling beams complete the architectural vision. The 15-foot custom fireplace radiates famous Grove Park Inn in Asheville vibes. It is one of 5 fireplaces throughout the home. The entire first floor is completely carpet free, emphasizing timeless elegance. The primary suite is an immense private retreat w/its own fireplace, dedicated deck, dual spa bathrooms - one w/its own en-suite dressing area - vast closets and a soaking tub for a party of two. The thoughtful design also encompasses two laundry rooms + oversized closets on each level. The home is also provisioned and ready for an elevator, if needed. ENTERTAINMENT DREAM. Designed for hosting, this estate is spoiled for outside spaces options with four separate decks. The newly expanded main deck is equipped with an outdoor gas kitchen, pizza kitchen + gas fire pit for year-round enjoyment. Enjoy your private hot tub oasis nestled in nature. Ample party parking areas along the driveways for your guests. A wall of windows in the kitchen open up to the enormous deck for the party to pass through. The chef's dream kitchen includes an oversized Viking oven/griddle, warming drawer, large counter area, and double built-in fridges, double butlers pantries and double dishwashers for easy prep/clean up. Intimate and informal dinners or snacks can be served right in the kitchen's large built-in banquette area or on the large center island. Dedicated dining room for formal dinner parties or raucous holiday dinners. There is also a hidden room that can only be accessed on the exterior for an absolutely perfect wine cellar. LUXURIOUS SPACES. While the primary suite occupies a third of the first floor, the remaining bedrooms await you on the daylight terrace level. This floor boasts equally impressive views, its own family room with one of the other five majestic fireplaces with a wall to wall hearth. There's a party kitchen, another laundry room, and each bedroom has its own updated en-suite bathroom. One room can be a designated workout studio, media room, workshop, office - possibilities are endless. RARE NATURE RETREAT. This is more than a home, this is a private hidden quiet retreat in the heart of the top-rated city of Roswell. Note the camera tripod set up on the first level, to capture the many, many birds and animals that stroll and fly through the acreage around this estate. Meander the trails down to the babbling creek with your steaming mug of coffee; sit quietly on one of the decks with your chilled glass of chardonnay watching the day's end. This is a rare opportunity to own a unique property in its own forest, but with unrivaled access to both nature and the town center. Schedule your private tour today.
