Property Description

Set beneath a canopy of majestic live oaks on one of Haile Plantation's most picturesque lots, this exceptional custom estate is a rare offering. Originally built as the personal residence of a prominent local builder and lovingly maintained by only two owners, this home reflects a level of craftsmanship, quality, and thoughtful design rarely found today. Beautifully updated while preserving its timeless character, the home offers over 4,300 square feet with six bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths. A long, tree-lined drive leads to a welcoming front porch and grand foyer with a elegant wood staircase. The great room is anchored by a double-sided brick fireplace and framed by three sets of 8-foot French doors that flood the home with natural light and open to the pool and outdoor living spaces. The kitchen blends style and function with custom 48-inch wood cabinetry, concrete countertops, a large center island, farmhouse sink, oversized walk-in pantry, and stainless steel appliances including a Thermador range and Café double ovens. The adjoining breakfast room, surrounded by exposed brick, adds warmth and character. Formal living and dining rooms provide elegant spaces for entertaining. The first-floor primary suite is a private retreat with a vaulted beadboard ceiling, sitting area, oversized walk-in closet, and a luxurious renovated spa bath featuring marble finishes, dual vanities, a jetted tub, and an expansive walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated bath complete the first floor. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including one en-suite bedroom and two connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath. French doors from one bedroom open to a private Juliet balcony overlooking the pool and gorgeous backyard. Throughout the home are heart pine floors, handcrafted antique doors from New Orleans, extensive crown molding, detailed millwork, custom lighting, and beautifully renovated bathrooms. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. A brick-enclosed porch with a summer kitchen overlooks a freeform pool and spa, expansive natural stone terrace, cascading rock waterfall, and mature landscaping beneath towering oaks. Multiple French doors create seamless indoor-outdoor living. A paved basketball court is large enough for pickleball. Just a short stroll from the Haile Village Center, you'll enjoy restaurants, cafés, boutique shopping, and the popular Saturday farmers market. Miles of walking trails, parks, and playgrounds are nearby, while Hawkstone Country Club (membership required) offers golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness, dining, and resort-style pools. A home of this caliber-combining exceptional craftsmanship, timeless architecture, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location in the heart of Haile Plantation-rarely comes to market.
