Welcome to your new sanctuary in High Springs, where the best of country living meets city convenience! Nestled on 5.49 sprawling acres of partially cleared land surrounded by Grandaddy Oaks, this stunning custom-built estate features not only a magnificent 4,178 square foot, 6 bedroom and 3.5 bath home that was completed in 2023, but also a nearly 2,000 square foot detached guest house that promises both privacy and comfort. As you pass through the entry gates, the grandeur of the main home greets you with open arms. Picture-perfect flower beds line the path to a welcoming front porch, ideal for enjoying morning coffee or evening drinks while basking in the golden sunset. Step inside and the grand French oak staircase and two-story foyer immediately impress. To the right, a versatile guest bedroom or office awaits, while the left leads to a generously sized formal dining room that is perfect for hosting gatherings. Just beyond the grand staircase lies a spacious laundry room that seamlessly connects to the primary suite’s walk-in closet. The closet leads to a luxurious bathroom, complete with a large soaking tub, dual sinks, and a private water closet. The primary bedroom offers a cozy retreat with views of the expansive yard, creating the perfect escape. The heart of the home is the great room, with soaring two story ceilings that enhance its spaciousness and a fireplace that adds warmth. Adjoining is an informal dining area and an expansive kitchen boasting a colossal island with seating for six, dual dishwashers, dual wall ovens, and abundant custom cabinets. An attached butler’s pantry/prep kitchen that spans the width of the kitchen has a sink and space for a refrigerator or freezer and ensures ample storage for all your appliances, dishes, and servingware, as well as abundant counter space. With a space like this, keeping clutter out of the kitchen is easy, and entertaining large crowds becomes a breeze. Upstairs, four guest bedrooms, including two connected by a Jack-n-Jill bath, and two baths offer comfort and privacy. A bonus room and upstairs laundry area add practicality and convenience, and a loft space makes for an ideal space to cozy up with a good book. For additional accommodation needs, the detached guest house, which was built in 2022, is complete with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a large kitchen, living space, and laundry room, and provides the perfect retreat for short and long-term visitors. Moreover, it has its own address, providing tremendous income potential as a rental or Airbnb. As one of the only lots on the street with Agricultural A-1 zoning, the possibilities are endless. Currently, there is a charming chicken coop that accommodates 25 chickens and an expansive 20x40 partially enclosed metal workshop, and there’s ample space for gardens, horses, and livestock.
