Surrounded by mature landscaping and a tranquil pond, this property offers the perfect blend of luxury, recreation, and versatility. Inside, a welcoming foyer leads to a thoughtfully designed floor plan centered around a chef's kitchen with a premium Viking range, abundant workspace, and a striking double-sided fireplace shared with the living room. The adjoining eat-in area and sitting space create the perfect gathering spot, while a butler's pantry with its own sink and dishwasher adds convenience. The dramatic living room features three oversized arched windows showcasing picturesque pond views. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with water views, a spacious flex area currently used as a yoga studio, and a dedicated laundry hookup. A large office with custom built-ins and a powder room complete the main level. The finished walk-out basement offers even more living space with a large family room, fireplace, impressive bar with wine cellar, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a separate laundry room. What truly sets this property apart is the remarkable second building. Connected by a paved path, it features a full kitchen, bar area, expansive gathering space, and an indoor basketball court. Upstairs, you'll find a massive open-concept area, an additional bath, and a luxurious steam shower. Whether used for guests, multigenerational living, recreation, a home business, or entertaining, the possibilities are endless. Outdoor amenities include multiple decks, a gazebo overlooking the pond, a picnic pavilion, and a 24x30 pole barn ideal for storage, hobbies, equipment, or recreational vehicles. Rarely does a property combine luxury living, incredible recreational amenities, extensive outdoor entertaining spaces, and a second structure with such unlimited potential.
