An extraordinary testament to luxury living, this home has been completely transformed from the ground up by award-winning architect Karl Straussburger. Every detail has been meticulously curated to cater to athletes, artists, chefs, and enthusiasts alike. Nestled on Lake Longmeadow, one of only 14 homes with exclusive riparian rights, this property uniquely features a private peninsula. The waterfront is an angler's dream, teeming with bass, bluegill, and a variety of wildlife. A US Army Corps of Engineers-installed retaining wall ensures erosion is kept at bay. The floating dock offers seamless access to the lake, leading to a brick patio perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. This area also boasts a cozy fire pit, ideal for enjoying crisp evenings outdoors. With 111 feet of lakefront access, this home is perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and even ice-skating during winter. The expansive backyard is beautifully landscaped with ample space for recreation and a potential swimming pool. Enjoy the bounty of apple and peach trees, along with a flourishing tomato and herb garden. Upon arrival, the custom brick circular driveway and grand foyer set the stage for an exceptional living experience. The open, spacious floor plan highlights the finest craftsmanship and attention to detail. Hardwood flooring flows throughout the main level, leading from a bright piano room with a fireplace to a formal dining room with seating for twelve. The main level also includes two custom-designed offices with exquisite woodwork, a powder room, an elevator serving all three floors, and a vast mudroom. The brand-new, state-of-the-art designer kitchen, complete with a butler's pantry and informal dining area, is an entertainer's delight, offering tranquil backyard views. The kitchen connects to a sunroom adorned with 100-year-old barn wood accents, heated floors, and a fireplace, opening to an impressive brick patio. The second level features five en suite bedrooms, each with premium finishes, heated bathroom floors, and generous walk-in closets. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, with a balcony offering stunning views of the backyard and lake. A private sitting room and a spiral staircase ascend to a library above the primary suite, highlighted by intricate woodwork and custom stained-glass skylights. The third level includes a safe room, full bath, and two versatile rooms currently used as an artist's studio and a film developing studio, both of which can be converted into additional bedrooms. The lower level offers a private guest suite with a full bath and kitchenette. This floor also features a temperature-controlled glass wine cellar with a dedicated tasting room, a theater with triple soundproofed walls and vintage-inspired seating, and two spacious gym rooms-one with ceilings high enough for a golf simulator, and another bathroom with a sauna. Seize the opportunity to own this magnificent home and indulge in the epitome of upscale living!
