Welcome to an extraordinary all-brick estate set within the prestigious gates of Wynstone, where timeless architecture meets resort-caliber living. Move-in ready with a newer roof/new mechanicals! Perfectly positioned on nearly 1.5 acres at the end of a serene cul-de-sac and set high above the street for added prominence and privacy, this magnificent 5-bedroom, 5.3-bath residence offers over 13,000 square feet of uncompromising luxury and breathtaking golf course views from nearly every vantage point in the home. From the moment you enter, a grand foyer crowned with a soaring tray ceiling and dazzling statement chandelier creates an unforgettable first impression, introducing the refined craftsmanship and architectural artistry found throughout. The original builders spared no expense-solid wood doors, exceptional millwork, and high-end finishes speak to the enduring quality and thoughtful design poured into every detail.

The adjacent family room is nothing short of spectacular, showcasing a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, cathedral ceiling, custom dry bar, and walls of windows that flood the space with natural light. Just beyond, a sun-drenched sunroom with a private hot tub provides year-round relaxation in a setting that feels both luxurious and secluded. The main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary unlike any other, featuring a remarkable two-level loft design, serene sitting area, oversized walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath complete with dual vanities, a soaking clawfoot tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower.

Upstairs, 4 additional bedroom suites each feature their own private ensuite baths and expansive walk-in closets, complemented by imaginative lofts, bonus spaces, and hidden retreats rarely found in luxury homes. A spacious central playroom anchors the third level, seamlessly connecting the various lofts and flexible spaces to create a dynamic and functional living environment.
