Public Remarks: The Most Iconic Private Estate in Elizabethtown — Tucked away in the prestigious Briarwood Forest subdivision, this extraordinary 11,000+ square foot private estate is one of Elizabethtown's most iconic and rarely available properties, offering true resort-style living just minutes from Baptist Health, downtown, and major highways. Set on 1.68 acres of manicured grounds, this estate was designed for those who value privacy, presence, and the ability to entertain at the highest level. From the moment you step into the grand foyer, the scale and craftsmanship are unmistakable. The residence offers six bedrooms, including two primary suites, six full bathrooms, and two half baths, ideal for multigenerational living or hosting guests with ease. The fully remodeled kitchen is a showpiece featuring custom cabinetry, premium countertops, a dedicated coffee bar, and seamless flow into expansive living areas anchored by gas fireplaces and soaring architectural ceilings. Thoughtfully curated finishes throughout create warmth while maintaining refined elegance. The primary suite serves as a true retreat with a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and generous custom closet space. Designed for elevated entertaining, the home includes a custom full bar, expansive family and recreation spaces, a private theater with luxury seating for an immersive cinematic experience, and separate quarters ideal for in-law living or extended stays. For collectors and hobbyists, the heated and cooled garage space accommodates six or more vehicles and includes a vehicle lift, wash bay, and dedicated pool bath — a rare amenity even among luxury estates. Outdoors, the lagoon-style in-ground pool with new liner, cover, and heater is framed by mature trees, landscaped grounds, and multiple gathering areas, creating a setting that feels worlds away while remaining in the heart of Elizabethtown. An additional one-acre lot (currently being subdivided) may be purchased with the property for expanded privacy or future investment opportunity. Previously appraised at $1.7 million, this estate represents a rare opportunity to own a property of this caliber at an exceptional value. Homes of this stature, scale, and privacy seldom become available. Private showings available by appointment.
