PRIVACY! Perched atop 25 private hilltop acres with breathtaking panoramic views, this stately Georgian-style estate is a rare offering. Priced to sell AS IS, this Custom built in 1994 by premier builder Hugh F. McGuire Jr., this architectural masterpiece showcases timeless symmetry, exceptional craftsmanship, and over 7,435 square feet of finished living space including an expansive finished lower level with endless possibilities. A long, paved private lane leads to the impressive brick residence, where classic dormers and twin brick chimneys create a commanding first impression. The 130mph dimensional roof is approximately 12 years old with lightning rods installed too! Inside, a dramatic curved staircase serves as the home’s architectural centerpiece, extending gracefully to the third floor.
