About This Home

This is THE ONE - a home where timeless southern elegance, refined craftsmanship, and luxurious comfort come together in one of the area’s most admired and desirable neighborhoods. Nestled near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the prestigious Woodland Forest Subdivision, this extraordinary custom-built residence offers the rare combination of sophistication, warmth, functionality, and enduring style that some buyers search years to find. From the moment you arrive, the presence of this home is undeniable. Mature landscaping frames the property beautifully, while the meticulously manicured lawn, enhanced by a full irrigation system, creates a polished first impression that immediately reflects the level of care and pride invested into every inch of this estate. The classic front elevation exudes southern charm with timeless architectural lines, welcoming double front doors, elegant copper gas lanterns, and carefully curated exterior finishes that create a striking yet graceful appearance. Built in 2017 with quality and longevity in mind, this exceptional residence offers 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths with an intelligently designed layout that perfectly balances everyday living with upscale entertaining. Four bedrooms are conveniently located downstairs, while the oversized fifth bedroom or bonus suite upstairs offers endless flexibility for modern lifestyles. Whether used as a private guest retreat, media room, executive office, game room, fitness studio, homeschool area, or secondary living space, the upstairs suite provides the kind of versatility today’s luxury buyer's desire. As you step inside, the home unfolds with warmth, character, and architectural richness rarely found in newer construction. Soaring ceilings create an airy and expansive feel throughout the living spaces, while exposed beams, detailed crown molding, stained beadboard accents, and custom tray ceilings provide texture and dimension that elevate every room. The combination of brick pavers and rich wood flooring flowing throughout the home introduces a level of craftsmanship and authenticity that feels deeply rooted in southern design tradition. The living area serves as the centerpiece of the home and was designed to gather people together comfortably and effortlessly. Natural light pours into the space, highlighting the architectural details and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout the day. The seamless connection between the living room, kitchen, and dining spaces creates an open-concept layout without sacrificing the cozy character that makes a house truly feel like home. The kitchen was thoughtfully designed for both serious cooking and elevated entertaining. Anchored by an oversized eat-in island, this space offers abundant prep space, seating, storage, and functionality while maintaining a stunning visual presence. Just off the main living area, the guest bedroom and bath are ideally positioned to provide privacy and comfort for visitors or extended family members. Beyond the interior, the outdoor living spaces continue the home’s theme of relaxed southern luxury. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the backyard serves as a true extension of the home itself. The outdoor kitchen and grilling area create the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends, weekend football gatherings, crawfish boils, or quiet evenings under the stars. Anchored by a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, the covered outdoor space overlooks the stunning saltwater, gunite pool. From the rich wood floors beneath your feet to the soaring ceilings above, from the glowing copper lanterns at the entry to the crackling fireplace beside the outdoor kitchen, this residence captures the essence of southern luxury living in a way that feels authentic rather than overstated. It is refined without feeling formal, grand without sacrificing warmth. Floor plan and additional property details are available upon request.
