Lakefront Hardin Valley architect-designed home with dock and detached boat garage/workshop! This 3.78-acre estate property feels as if you're in a botanical garden or a country estate, with masterful professional landscaping, hardscaping and accent lighting which beautifully refines and complements the natural features of the land. The exquisite architecture produced a home design of understated luxury with a classic ''cottage-meets-cape cod'' feel, appropriate to the grounds and lakefront location. Once inside, be amazed at the spacious rooms and flow! Every inch of this home is appointed with custom features, from custom millwork and doors, coffered living room ceiling, rich and inviting custom cabinetry in the large main office, beautiful custom kitchen cabinetry with high-end built-in appliances and handsome granite counters, custom walk-in pantry, and soaring cathedral ceilings in the breakfast room, bonus room, and screened porch. Entertaining is a dream with the butler's pantry between kitchen and formal dining room, with an ice maker, 2nd dishwasher, wine cooler, and a sink. The beautiful lakeside screened porch, with stone wood-burning fireplace, draws you out to relax year-round and soak in the spectacular views of the lake and grounds. It's an easy stroll to the dock along a flagstone walkway and stone steps, with discreet pathway lighting in the evening. The covered dock on year-round deep water features a open deck with swim ladder, as well as a covered 8,000 lb. boat lift and a jetski lift, with more storage in the dock attic! For a wildlife/nature enthusiast craving close-in privacy, this property simply has it all; even the view from the dock is completely unobstructed by other docks, and the opposite shoreline is undeveloped government-owned land. Coming in from the lake, yard or garage through the mudroom entry is perfectly executed, with a full bath with tile shower opposite the laundry room, followed by a second office opposite the custom walk-in pantry just off the kitchen. The garage has an EV charger, and a fully-floored walk-up attic for plenty of storage/workshop space! A true opportunity of a lifetime for exclusive lake living right here in Knoxville, minutes from the fantastic Hardin Valley Schools and shopping, in a home and property of the absolute highest caliber. Please do not drive onto the property without an appointment; house is not visible from the entrance.
