This fine estate in the Bivens Arm lake community is less than 10 minutes from the University. This fine house, beautifully built in the southern plantation style, features columned screened porches on both floors across the front overlooking the entrance courtyard with its anti-bellum well. The kitchen is a gourmet chef’s dream with a huge gas stove, granite counters, upscale appliances and a breakfast area. The multi-centered great room has a fireplace and a bar/lounge area that opens to the back woods. The master retreat upstairs with French doors opening to the porch, has a jetted tub, a steamer shower/room, a huge walk-in closet. There are two other upstairs bedrooms and a study/library loft. Downstairs is a private guest suite. The detached 1,359 sq. ft. four car garage is complete with all the services that you would want for a professional level workshop. Above the garage, not included in the square footage is a heated and cooled, unfinished area that has electricity and plumbing. Just waiting for your final touches to create that luxury apartment. There is also an easement to the lake to launch your boat.
