A McKee Development Neighborhood and Tom Fazio Designed Golf Course - This magnificent estate-size home is on the market for the first time. The setting is 8+ beautiful acres. As you drive into the long, circular driveway, you see majestic outcroppings of stone, interspersed with ferns and lush plantings. The double door entrance to the house is surrounded by large native stone and shingled siding. Inside is an elegant great room with floor-to- ceiling stone fireplace and windows on all sides, allowing natural light to spill inside. The view is spectacular! Stepping onto the stone terrace from the great room, the vistas include mountains and national forest. From this terrace you enter a large covered porch with wood-burning fireplace. Attached is a small office where the present owner sometimes works, as well as paints the vistas beyond. Also attached is a two-car, open garage with ample space for a golf cart. Even the garage is an architectural delight! Don't miss looking up at the ceiling! Back inside is a large kitchen with top-quality appliances, including a Subzero refrigerator and a lovely nook for breakfast while gazing at the view. The separate dining room is next and nearby are double doors exiting onto the terrace. There are 4 bedrooms and 4 and one half baths.
