Stunning Georgian, brick traditional, 5 BR, 5 Baths, on 10.7 private acres and minutes from Clearview Medical in Monroe. You will admire the home from its circular driveway with cascading fountain in front. The welcoming, two-story foyer, with Canadian crystal chandelier and marble flooring, provides an elegant introduction to the home. The banquet size, formal dining room to the left showcases a magnificent Canadian crystal chandelier. True to tradition, the formal living room/music room is located on the right. When is the last time you saw a home with beautiful, stained woodwork and stained dentil molding throughout? These upgrades are typically not available in homes within this price point, nor are the Pella blind-in-glass windows with stained wood framing and stained window sills throughout the home. The gourmet kitchen is an entertainer's dream with a Thermador cooktop complete with grill and recently updated stainless steel appliance package, which includes a wine cooler, microwave oven, refrigerator, and convection oven. The large kitchen island and other counters are Corian, and a lovely tile backsplash completes the new look of the updated kitchen. The kitchen also has two huge, walk-in pantries with wood shelving and 3 sinks. A large pass through, from the kitchen into the large breakfast room, is convenient for serving or socializing. The breakfast room and kitchen are open to the large family room with beautiful built-ins, wood burning stove, and wet bar. French doors off the family room open to a huge sunroom with skylights and separate solarium. An enormous open deck with Trek surface floor is accessible from the solarium. Other rooms on the main level include an office/study, guest room with full bath, prayer room, media room, huge laundry room, and three-car garage with separate game room and separate storage room. Located upstairs is the oversized master suite, with spa bath and skylights, 3 additional bedrooms and baths, and multiple walk-in closets, all w/built-ins. The back lawn is flat with plenty of room for a large pool and pool house. The grounds are beautifully landscaped w/sodded lawns, abundant foliage, and an irrigation system. Low voltage, outdoor lighting enhances the beauty of the home, trees and shrubs in the evenings. Additional parking outside the garage, can easily accommodate 6 to 8 cars. Optional 4+ acres beside home available to purchase.
