Nestled on 9.7 private acres bordering the breathtaking 5,515-acre Chito Branch Reserve, this custom-built estate by renowned builder Michael Willis offers the perfect blend of modern luxury and tranquil country living. The thoughtfully designed 2,432 square feet heated living space (4,663 Sf under roof) features high 10-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, and exquisite crown molding, with wood floors flowing throughout the home. The chef’s kitchen boasts a gas stove, leathered granite countertops, and custom cabinetry, while the versatile gas fireplace, convertible to wood-burning, adds a cozy touch. Designed for comfort and security, the home includes a fortified safe room with solid concrete walls and an 8-foot safe door, a state-of-the-art alarm system, and surveillance cameras. Energy-efficient construction with foam-insulated concrete block walls is complemented by two A/C units for optimal climate control. Above the spacious three-car garage is a 625-square-foot unfinished bonus room, offering endless customization opportunities for a mother-in-law suite or that 4th and 5th bedroom. Outdoors, enjoy a large aluminum carport, an alarmed shed with electricity, an outdoor shower, and a pavilion set on a concrete pad—perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The property is further enhanced by a modern septic system, a comprehensive well water treatment system, and prewiring for a portable generator. With its unparalleled privacy, abundant wildlife, stunning natural surroundings, and thoughtful amenities, this property is a true gem for those seeking a serene retreat or a functional family home.
