Property Description
Private West Mobile Estate tucked beneath a canopy of majestic live oak trees and hidden away at the end of a private drive, this extraordinary West Mobile estate offers a rare blend of privacy, craftmanship, and natural beauty. Situated on nearly 5 picturesque acres overlooking a tranquil lake, the property feels like a private retreat while remaining convenient to everything West Mobile has to offer. Inspired by a featured Southern Living Magazine home, the residence showcases remarkable Red Cedar timber-frame architecture throughout the main living areas. Soaring ceilings, exposed beams, rich wood accents, and expansive windows create an atmosphere that is both grand and inviting while capturing breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. At the heart of the home is a stunning chef's kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Custom cabinetry extends to the ceiling, providing exceptional storage and timeless style. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, double ovens, and generous prep areas make this space as functional as it is beautiful. The impressive timber-framed ceiling overhead creates a dramatic backdrop rarely found in today's homes. The spacious living room opens to a cozy fireside gathering room featured vaulted cedar ceilings, a beautiful stone-accented fireplace, and walls of glass that bring the outdoors in. French doors lead to the expansive patio, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living providing the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying peaceful lake views. Designed with comfort and privacy in mind, the split-bedroom floor plan features two separate wings, each with its on HVAC system. The primary suite offers a spacious bedroom filled with natural light and serene views, while the spa-like bath includes an oversized vanity with abundant storage and beautifully tiled walk-in shower. The opposite wing features three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a versatile flex space ideal for a reading nook, homework station, playroom, or media room. Additional highlights include a massive walk-in pantry, extensive storage throughout, a spacious laundry room with cabinetry, a convenient half bath, and a side-entry three-car garage. Step outside to discover a true backyard oasis complete with fire pit, gathering spaces, mature landscaping, colorful gardens, abundant birdlife, and peaceful lake views. Whether enjoying coffee on the patio at sunrise or hosting family and friends under the stars, every aspect of this property was designed to celebrate its extraordinary setting. Per seller, the roof was replaced in 2023. A rare opportunity to own one of West Mobile's most distinctive properties - where timeless timber-frame architecture, luxury amenities, and nearly 5 acres of natural beauty to come together to create an unforgettable place to call home.
