Description

Welcome to a one-of-a-kind custom estate where timeless craftsmanship, rustic elegance, and modern luxury come together on over 26 breathtaking acres in Steinhatchee, Florida. Inspired by the charm of a Florida Cracker home and the grandeur of a Tennessee mountain lodge, this extraordinary 5,000-square-foot residence offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and exceptional quality throughout. Surrounded by peaceful, park-like scenery, this is more than a home—it's a place where generations can gather, traditions can be passed down, and lifelong memories are made. A picturesque 1,500 feet of paved road frontage, accented by a black four-board fence, professionally irrigated and uplighted landscaping, and a 14-foot automatic entrance gate creates an unforgettable first impression. The home's exterior features a classic 5V barn-style metal roof, board-and-batten siding, stone veneer accents, seamless black gutters, and an impressive 2,500-square-foot wraparound porch supported by 28 custom 9-foot wood columns with grand stadium-style entry steps. Inside, handcrafted details set this home apart. Hand-stained Jacobean pine cabinetry, custom accent walls milled from 100-year-old Steinhatchee pine, polished concrete floors with the look of rich leather, soaring ceilings, dramatic 22-foot book-matched pine beams, and a stunning stone gas fireplace with a blue slate hearth and a rare mantel handcrafted from a 750-year-old Louisiana cypress tree create an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication. The chef's kitchen is built to impress with commercial-grade appliances, an 8-burner gas range, custom four-stage copper vent hood, striking copper and stone backsplash, and French doors opening to the wraparound porch. Hand-stamped copper sinks, a 72-inch copper clawfoot tub in the guest bath, and a luxurious owner's suite with a spa-inspired walk-in tile shower featuring dual rainfall showerheads complete the home's exceptional interior. An exterior door from the owner's suite also provides private porch access. Premium features include Andersen windows, Therma-Tru fiberglass exterior doors, custom pine interior doors, specialty dimmable lighting, whole-home surround sound, custom closets, approximately 600 square feet of attic storage, a gas on-demand water heater, and a PEX plumbing manifold system. A matching 400-square-foot custom pump and pool house houses the water filtration system and a 32KW Generac whole-property generator. Two private wells, a buried 250-gallon propane tank, and thoughtfully designed infrastructure provide efficiency and peace of mind. Nature lovers will fall in love with the incredible wildlife that calls this property home.
