This exquisite Georgian estate, crafted by Harrison Construction in collaboration with architects Spitzmiller and Norris, is nestled on a remarkable 4.47-acre lot in the prestigious Woods of Fox Glen. Handpicked by Harrison, the visionary behind the community, this residence offers unparalleled privacy, enhanced by a picturesque 1/4-mile driveway that welcomes you into a serene landscape surrounded by mature trees. As you approach the home, the classic Georgian architecture captivates with its elegant brick facade, intricate cornices, stately columns, and finely detailed plinth bases. Step inside to a grand two-story foyer adorned with marble flooring, setting the tone for the stunning interior that showcases the hallmark features of high Georgian design, emphasizing symmetry and proportion. The home boasts nearly 10,000 square feet of luxurious living space, with ornate wood mouldings and trim throughout, soaring 10-foot ceilings on the main level, and two elegantly crafted staircases. The private library is a standout, featuring a coffered ceiling, rich cherry wood accents, and a mantel imported from England, complemented by custom built-in bookshelves. The formal dining room is designed for hosting, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a cozy fireplace, seamlessly connecting to the gourmet kitchen through tasteful dividing doors for effortless entertaining. The grand two-story living room exudes sophistication, showcasing herringbone wood floors, dramatic chandeliers, and a stunning array of windows that bathe the space in natural light. Three sets of French doors lead to a charming brick paver patio, perfect for outdoor gatherings. Culinary enthusiasts will delight in the gourmet kitchen, complete with expansive granite countertops, a custom pantry, 42-inch cherry cabinets, and a peninsula with a prep sink. A cozy family room adjacent to the kitchen features a custom skylight inspired by Victor Hugo's Parisian home, along with bay windows and a fireplace framed by built-in shelves. The tranquil main-level master suite offers a serene retreat, complete with a sitting area, abundant natural light, his and hers walk-in closets, and a luxurious ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, a whirlpool tub, and a separate shower.
