Property Description
Welcome to your private sanctuary?a custom-built 7,000 square foot luxury home nestled on a 16-acre wooded estate in beautiful High Springs, Florida. As you approach via a tree-lined driveway behind a private gated entrance, you'll be captivated by the serene beauty of this one-of-a-kind property. The main residence, a completely updated two-story masterpiece, boasts numerous upgrades and modern amenities, including hand-laid travertine flooring and a large recreation room with a working fireplace built with rock from the property. The estate also features an adorable guest house, a sparkling lap pool with screened in lanai, and an enormous barn that has been newly renovated with an open floor plan of combination kitchen, dining and living area, as well as one large bedroom with walk-in closet.
The lot spans 16 acres, with approximately 75% of the perimeter fenced. The driveway was paved in 2018 and sealed in 2022, while fencing on the main road and a gated entrance were added in 2018, with the fence re-stained in 2023. Built in 1979 by Ralph Royster, the main home features cedar wood framing, newer windows (2014), and a 400-amp electric service updated in 2010, including a generator system and a 50-amp RV service added in 2022. Three bathrooms have been fully renovated, and the primary suite includes a large walk-in closet and luxury bathroom. The lower level offers additional living spaces, storage areas, and a double-length garage.
The pool house/in-law suite apartment, remodeled in 2018, includes two bedrooms, a living room, eat-in kitchen, and a beautiful bathroom, with exits to the screened pool area. The in-ground pool, installed in 1985, has been updated with a Diamond Brite finish, glass tile, waterfalls, water features, and converted to a salt system. The barn, a 60x60 concrete block building, has updated electric, a new roof (2017), and a 50-foot RV pad added in 2020. The barn apartment, remodeled in 2023, features an open floor plan and a heat pump system.
