Elegant, gracious, inviting...just a few words that come to mind as one meanders down the winding, canopied Sugar Mill Drive and first glimpses this lovely & unrivaled walled estate in the Oaks Bayside. Strolling through the welcoming courtyard and on through the front door you will know this is a very special and serene residence, the most ideal place to call home. Immediately the stunning architecture and rich details of the main living salon envelope you.The magnificent artwork that is so comfortable and so perfectly at home in this setting, starts speaking to you. Your eyes are drawn through this room to the grand dining room and then to the outside beyond. A gracious pool and fountain set within the back courtyard provides a lovely and quiet gathering space. The kitchen is a chef's delight with every amenity in its fabulous design. This room flows seamlessly into the morning room, or family room, and on out to the enormous stone patio and pool with its spa. Stepping through any one of several French doors one is now in this private and captivating pool area with its lush and elegant plantings. Across the pool is the beautifully proportioned guest house, offering privacy and seclusion from the main house. As one walks through the beautiful gardens and wrought iron gate it becomes clear there is yet another lovely building, a detached 2-car garage. This elegant walled estate is set on a peaceful restored pond with a lovely fountain adding a soft musical ambience to this pastoral and private setting.
