Introducing a truly one-of-a-kind gem located on one of the best lots in the Middlefork Farm Subdivision providing spectacular sunset views over the Middlefork Savanna. From the moment you step inside you'll be captivated by its distinctive design and thoughtful touches that set it apart from the rest. This very special home boasts exquisite details that seamlessly blend with modern amenities. The great floor plan provides a sense of spaciousness while maintaining an intimate atmosphere. Special features include hardwood floors, beautiful wainscoting and moldings, tall ceilings, high-end light fixtures and numerous French doors allowing access to several patio areas. The De Giulio kitchen has been reimagined by the current owner with many fabulous upgrades and changes and is connected to the formal dining room by a striking barrel-vaulted ceiling hallway. This elegant room with coffered ceiling and built-ins is a wonderful place to entertain, opening into the two story grand foyer. The expansive great room is a wonderful setting to relax and unwind, with stately fireplace and convenient study/office nearby. An oversized mudroom and separate laundry room, along with charming powder room completes the first level. Four bedrooms grace the second floor including the private primary suite with tray ceiling and French doors opening to the balcony overlooking the Middlefork Savanna, LF Open Lands and Elawa Farm. The suite also includes a luxurious bath with dual sink vanity, custom cabinetry and extra large shower and spacious walk-in closet. Two bedrooms are connected by a Jack and Jill bath and the fourth bedroom has a bath ensuite.  The second floor loft is an intimate retreat with glorious outdoor views. Built-in book shelves, and an arched opening combine to create a relaxing reading area or open office space. The finished lower level expands the actual living space by another almost 2000 sq ft and provides room for play in the  recreation room with wet bar, exercise room, fifth bedroom w/adjoining full bath as well as ample storage. Entertaining outdoors is a breeze with the intricate stone and brick patio located just off the kitchen. Mature trees, perennial gardens and professional landscaping enhance the natural beauty of the property. So much to enjoy in this one of a kind home!
