All offers will be reviewed and sellers will decide by 10am Saturday May 23rd, if not sooner*** Tucked away in the prestigious Cedar Crest Acres enclave of Big Lake, this magnificent 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom residence offers an unparalleled blend of sophisticated living and serene natural beauty. Poised majestically on a sprawling, heavily wooded 2.51 acre parcel, the estate serves as a private sanctuary enveloped by a dense canopy of mature trees, offering a rare sense of seclusion without sacrificing modern convenience. No detail has been overlooked in the preservation and enhancement of this property, which boasts an extraordinary suite of recent capital improvements completed in 2024, including a brand new roof, a high efficiency furnace, a pristine central air conditioning system, and water heater. This extensive mechanical overhaul ensures absolute peace of mind and turn key luxury for the discerning buyer. Upon crossing the threshold, you are greeted by an expansive and grand foyer that immediately sets the tone with rich flooring, exquisite natural woodwork, and soaring vaulted ceilings. The main level transitions seamlessly into the heart of the home with a gourmet culinary space designed for both intimate family meals and grand scale entertaining. This chef inspired kitchen features a prominent center island, premium stainless steel appliances, timeless tile flooring, and a beautiful kitchen window that frames panoramic views of the grounds. Flowing effortlessly from the informal dining area is a breathtaking, sun drenched sunroom, anchored by elegant French doors that invite the outside in and lead to an expansive outdoor deck and patio system, perfect for outdoor dining and wildlife viewing! The architectural brilliance of this multi level split configuration provides both connection and privacy. The upper level serves as a quiet family haven, thoughtfully designed with three spacious bedrooms on a single floor, accompanied by a lavish full bath featuring a dual sink vanity. Descending to the lower levels, the home unfolds into an entertainer’s paradise. A large family room presents an elegant space to gather, complete with a cozy, gas burning fireplace that radiates warmth. This level also hosts a private fourth bedroom, a flexible playroom that can easily transition into a private fitness studio or home theatre, and a beautifully appointed three quarter bath. Beyond the main residence lies an unmatched haven for enthusiasts, collectors, or hobbyists. The attached three stall garage is a masterpiece of utility, boasting nearly 1,000 square feet of fully insulated and heated space, accessible via premium asphalt and concrete driveways. Complementing this is the crown jewel of the exterior grounds, a spectacular, detached 24x30 shop, providing an immaculate canvas for classic car storage, a professional workshop, or recreational toys. Complete with high speed fiber optic internet connectivity and situated within the highly sought after Monticello School District with convenient access to regional thoroughfares, this acreage masterpiece represents a rare opportunity to inherit a lifestyle of quiet luxury, space, and pristine modern updates.
