The story
Tucked behind the private gates of Wellington Manor, this exceptional custom-built estate offers over 4,700 square feet of luxurious living on a private 0.53-acre cul-de-sac homesite with tranquil conservation views and no rear neighbors. Surrounded by mature landscaping and breathtaking sunsets, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy, elegance and convenience. The expansive stone-paver outdoor living area is ideal for entertaining, relaxing or creating your own backyard oasis. Whether you prefer the beauty of a spacious pool-free yard or envision adding a resort-style pool and spa, the homesite offers endless possibilities. Inside, soaring 10'8" ceilings, custom architectural details, 8-foot interior doors, travertine and wood flooring, tray ceilings pre-wired for lighting, more than 1,000 feet of crown molding, and 7¼-inch baseboards showcase the home's exceptional craftsmanship.

The chef's kitchen features quartz countertops, abundant custom cabinetry, premium Thermador stainless steel appliances, built-in double ovens, 6-burner gas cooktop, large center island and a casual dining area. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat with dual walk-in closets, a soaking tub and an oversized walk-through double shower finished in travertine. Secondary bedrooms and baths are thoughtfully positioned for privacy, while a dedicated office provides the ideal work-from-home space. Expansive drop zone, laundry and pantry areas offer tons of organizational and storage space. Upstairs, the oversized bonus room offers incredible flexibility with a custom wet bar, game room, fitness area, additional bedroom and full bath—perfect for guests, multigenerational living or extended entertaining.
