Exceptional custom home with resort-style outdoor living and extensive upgrades throughout. Built by a custom builder as a personal residence, this 5BR home blends luxury, craftsmanship, and function on over half an acre backing to highly regarded Wesley Chapel Elementary.
The backyard is built for gathering: two fire pit areas, horseshoe pits, and extensive string lighting, all enclosed by split-rail fence beneath mature oaks. Terraced hardscape garden beds hold established fruit-bearing blueberry bushes, with blackberry vines along the fence line. An 8-zone irrigation system with drip lines serves upper and lower beds. A spacious ~200 SF three-season room overlooks the patio and backyard, with screened storage below for lawn equipment.
Dual 8-ft front doors open to a 6-ft-wide entry and a dramatic two-story foyer with chandelier and lighted display niches. The living room centers on a gas-log fireplace with floor-to-ceiling stone, custom built-ins, bi-fold TV concealment doors, detailed tray ceiling, and hickory hardwoods. Built-in surround sound extends through the living room, kitchen, and three-season room, and the home is hardwired with CAT5 networking.
The gourmet kitchen features a professional Viking gas cooktop with pop-up ventilation and pot filler, built-in KitchenAid microwave/oven combo and warming drawer, built-in refrigerator, touch faucet, new LED cabinet lighting, illuminated glass-front displays, custom slide-out Purpleheart/walnut/oak cutting board, built-in desk, and a bay-window breakfast area. The adjacent dining room offers a built-in serving bar with upper and lower cabinetry, accent lighting, and sconces.
The main-level primary suite is a true retreat: tray ceiling, private sitting room with a second gas-log fireplace, and hickory floors. The bath includes his-and-her walk-in closets with cedar floors, dual vanities, sunken Jacuzzi tub, and a dedicated shower room with dual heads and body jets.
A mudroom off the garage offers built-in bench, cubbies, wainscoting, and chalkboard wall; the laundry room features a custom white oak cabinet system behind sliding barn doors.
Upstairs, a large loft with built-ins and dual desk workstations anchors a secondary primary suite with private bath and walk-in closet, two bedrooms joined by a Jack-and-Jill bath, a flex room currently used as a bedroom, and two large walk-in attic spaces.
The finished basement adds incredible flexibility: a home theater with two-tier seating, six powered recliners with USB ports and under-seat lighting, 85-inch TV, Klipsch surround sound, popcorn bar, and refrigerator; a fitness room with 3/4-inch mat flooring; a large workshop with natural light and egress potential for a future bedroom; and a utility/galley area with sink and washer/dryer hookups ready for a future kitchenette. Custom red oak bi-fold doors conceal generous closets in both the theater and fitness rooms, and finished areas feature waterproof flooring. Tremendous multigenerational potential.
Additional highlights: upper 2-car garage plus lower 1-car garage with separate driveway, whole-home central vacuum with long-hose attachment for car detailing, fridge water line plumbed for a second ice maker, Wi-Fi thermostats, and Alexa-compatible smart lighting in select areas. This one was thoughtfully planned down to the smallest detail. Workshop in basement and utility room is Heated and cooled and could be converted to livable SF.
