Every once in a while, a home comes along that doesn’t just catch the eye—it captures the heart. This captivating River Ridge estate offers 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 half baths inside, and an additional half bath in the workshop, blending elegance, strength, and soul. With nearly 6,000 sq ft of refined living space and over 8,200 sq ft under roof, it sits on a sprawling 142' x 236' lot adorned with two gazebos, covered patios, a sparkling inground pool, a dedicated workshop, and a balcony off the primary suite perfect for quiet mornings and golden sunsets. A circular driveway welcomes guests in timeless Southern style.
Step through the grand foyer where an auto-drop chandelier sets the tone for the grandeur to follow. The interior features soaring ceilings, a piano-style staircase, and light-filled vaulted rooms. Pecan wood floors run throughout both levels, complementing the four fireplaces, dual dens, sunroom, office nook, and butler’s pantry. The formal dining room stuns with its silver leaf ceiling—a luminous detail that elevates any gathering. Behind the beauty lies functionality: updated plumbing and electrical systems, four HVAC systems all under 10 years old, and structural bracing from the foundation to the roof, built to withstand 150 mph hurricane winds. The home was originally constructed circa 1940 and elevated and expanded in 1992 by renowned architect Bob Richardson—one of his most celebrated works. Add to that a 2022 roof, current termite contract, and an X flood zone location for peace of mind, and you have a truly extraordinary property.
Whether you’re drawn by craftsmanship, history, or the lifestyle it offers, this is more than a home—it’s a sanctuary made for connection, creativity, and celebration.
