For the discerning buyer who refuses to settle for ordinary, this extraordinary new construction is a masterclass in luxury and design. A true showcase of an esteemed Upstate Custom Builder who is continuing a family legacy of craftsmanship, every inch of this home reflects elevated detail and uncompromising quality. From hand-selected cabinet hardware to statement designer lighting and dramatic architectural uplighting, no element was overlooked in creating a residence that is both glamorous and enduring. Perfectly positioned on a premier corner lot of over half an acre in the prestigious River Mist community, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath Craftsman estate with dedicated flex space is nothing short of breathtaking. A welcoming double-door entry opens to a soaring two-story foyer, where luxury vinyl plank flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, complemented by designer tile in each bath. The main level is thoughtfully curated for both elegance and functionality. A private powder room showcases custom cabinetry and refined lighting. A secondary main-floor suite offers a walk-in closet, linen storage, and a spa-inspired bath complete with an upper-tier granite vanity and walk-in tiled shower—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. The living room is a dramatic focal point, centered around a stacked-stone gas fireplace framed by windows that bathe the space in natural light while preserving privacy. A moody dropped ceiling with architectural uplighting creates depth and ambiance, delivering an unforgettable “wow” factor. The open-concept design effortlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, providing seamless flow for both intimate evenings and grand entertaining. In the dining room, an exposed brick feature wall adds rich character, beautifully balanced by a high-glam designer glass chandelier and elegant column detailing that defines the space with sophistication. The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece, anchored by a massive island with custom soft-close cabinetry, built-in under-cabinet microwave, pull-out custom cabinets for utensil storage and spices, and a discreet built-in paper towel dispenser. A professional-grade six-burner gas range with statement vent hood is set against warm, high-gloss glazed subway tile—timeless yet refined. A walk-in pantry enhances functionality, while the adjacent laundry room features a sink and custom drop zone, perfectly designed for everyday convenience. Privately tucked at the rear of the home, the owner’s suite is a serene retreat. A vaulted, whitewashed tongue-and-groove ceiling elevates the space with architectural charm. The spa-caliber bath boasts marble-look porcelain tile, a soaking tub, dual vanities with custom warm wood cabinetry, earthy-toned countertops, a walk-in tiled shower and a walk-in closet with custom closet organizers designed for both beauty and organization. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms each feature walk-in closets and access to beautifully appointed full bathrooms with soft-close cabinetry, designer fixtures, and upper-tier granite countertops. A massive Flex room with double dormers adds versatility, complete with an oversized closet for additional storage. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A partially covered Trex deck offers a seamless extension of the home, complete with TV hookup for elevated entertaining. The full-yard irrigation system ensures lush landscaping year-round, completing this exceptional property. This is more than a home—it is a statement of refinement, craftsmanship, and timeless luxury.
