A home of quiet distinction and enduring elegance, this custom-built 6,200-square-foot estate at 22030 Watson Road is designed for the discerning buyer who appreciates quality, elegance, and purposeful living—without excessive, unused spaces. Thoughtfully configured for true multi-generational flexibility, the residence lives like two separate homes, with a fully independent main-level living environment and an equally self-sufficient lower-level residence, each offering privacy, comfort, and functionality. Set on a beautiful 3-acre parcel in Leesburg with NO HOA restrictions, the property offers an exceptional blend of timeless architecture, refined craftsmanship, and serene privacy. Designed for the discerning buyer who values both luxury and livability, the residence showcases gracious main-level living paired with a fully independent lower-level suite—perfect for multi-generational living, extended guests, or a private retreat—complete with a spacious three-car garage. From the moment you arrive, the home’s stately brick façade with precast quoins and trim, arched entry, and custom 8-foot solid mahogany doors with leaded beveled glass set a tone of sophistication. Professionally landscaped grounds, enhanced by subtle evening illumination and thoughtfully engineered drainage, create a lasting first impression while ensuring long-term ease of maintenance. Inside, the main level unfolds with expansive, light-filled spaces designed for both everyday comfort and elegant entertaining. Soaring 10- and 9-foot ceilings, extensive crown molding, custom millwork, and designer crystal chandeliers lend warmth and architectural richness throughout. The main level features four spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms, offering true one-level living without compromise. Multiple French doors seamlessly connect the interior to a covered stone terrace—an inviting outdoor living room framed by architectural columns and tranquil wooded views, ideal for al fresco dining or quiet relaxation. The heart of the home is complemented by custom cabinetry, oversized 36-inch doorways, deep windowsills, and flexible, non-load-bearing interior walls that allow for future customization. A private home office with its own exterior entrance and bath offers an ideal space for work or client-facing use. Two fireplaces—one gas and one wood-burning—provide both convenience and ambiance. The expansive lower level is a standout feature, offering over 4,000 square feet of finished space, including a fully self-sufficient in-law or guest suite with private entrance, full kitchen, living and dining areas, two bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms and a laundry area. A separate HVAC zone and enhanced sound insulation ensure comfort and privacy between levels, while abundant storage and thoughtful details—such as a bar area and future fireplace rough-in—add versatility and comfort. Constructed with enduring quality in mind, the home features solid brick exterior walls with precast quoins and trim, 2x6 framing for superior insulation, aluminum-clad windows with Low-E glass, powder-coated iron railings, and a buried 1,000-gallon propane tank with owner-controlled supplier flexibility. This home has a dual heating system both gas and electric-giving you the flexibility to switch from one to the other based on market prices. Energy efficiency and low maintenance were paramount in the design, with gutter guards, underground drainage systems, solar-powered lighting, and a direct propane line to the outdoor grill further enhancing convenience. Complete architectural design and construction drawings will convey at settlement, offering a rare opportunity to fully understand and appreciate the thoughtful planning behind this exceptional residence. A property of substance and sophistication, this is luxury living defined by quality, flexibility, and timeless appeal.
