Crafted by award-winning Southern Living custom builder Tab Premium Built Homes, this extraordinary estate represents a rare offering within the prestigious 250-acre Gables Run equestrian community. One of just 35 exclusive homesites, this distinguished residence was honored with First Place in the Parade of Homes by the Home Builders Association, reflecting its exceptional design, craftsmanship, and architectural integrity. Gracefully positioned on a beautifully landscaped, wooded 2+ acre corner lot, the home makes a striking first impression. A circular drive leads to an inviting front porch framed by grand 10 by 10 columns, Brazilian mahogany decking, and a custom-crafted entry door. Inside, an expansive foyer adorned with rich Caribbean pine flooring sets a tone of warmth and understated sophistication. Bespoke millwork and luxury windows throughout enhance the home's timeless character. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both refined entertaining and comfortable daily living. The private primary suite features a tray ceiling and a newly renovated spa-inspired ensuite (2025), offering a serene retreat. Formal dining and sitting rooms provide elegant gathering spaces, while the living room's coffered ceiling and stunning stone fireplace with gas logs create an inviting focal point. The chef's kitchen is appointed with a 48'' gas range, butler's pantry, and updated appliances, seamlessly blending beauty and function. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms-including two connected by a beautifully updated dual-entry bath- are complemented by a newly carpeted bonus room (2025), an additional updated full bath (2025), an open-concept workstation, and a dedicated theater room, delivering exceptional versatility. The outdoor living experience is nothing short of spectacular. A resort-style saltwater pool with cascading waterfall, surrounded by travertine decking (2022), anchors the private backyard oasis. A pool heater/chiller ensures year-round enjoyment. Multiple entertaining spaces--including a stone patio with automated Sunsetter awning (2023), outdoor speakers, and a charming screened porch--create seamless indoor-outdoor living. A custom-built ancillary structure and ornamental fencing complete the estate's refined exterior appeal. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully enhanced, recent improvements include a fortified roof (2023), whole-house generator, new security system (2023), upgraded whole-home audio (2023), crawl space dehumidification system (2022), two new water heaters (2023), interior and exterior painting (2023 & 2025), and an upgraded irrigation system (2022).
