About this home
Whole House Generator included with this large home tucked away home in the oaks right off of River Road, this exquisite Southern estate blends classic charm with modern luxury with the main house and a separate guesthouse. The main house includes 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 1 half bath, and from the moment you step inside, you’ll be captivated by the spacious layout, custom finishes, and thoughtful design throughout.
The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and dining area—an entertainer's dream—featuring a gas range with a custom vent hood, and a built in refrigerator. Welcome your guests to the spacious formal dining area, while the inviting living room offers a cozy gas fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and dual French doors that open to a tranquil back patio.
The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, complete with private patio access, an oversized walk-in closet (18'7" x 5') with storage shelves, and a spa-like en-suite bathroom with an oversized soaking tub, double vanity, separate shower, enclosed water closet, and an additional massive closet--if you didn't feel like sharing the closet in the bedroom.

The detached guesthouse, connected to the two-door garage with front and rear access, features two half bathrooms and a spacious upstairs game room or billiard room with a wet bar, refrigerator, and built-in shelving—the ultimate space for leisure and hospitality.
