Welcome to Bella Woods, a majestic 188-acre retreat where timeless elegance meets unrivaled craftsmanship. Hidden away for ultimate privacy, this distinguished estate is set against a backdrop of rolling landscapes, lush woodlands, and tranquil waters. Enjoy a spectacular approach through an electronic gated entry framed by stone columns and black 4-board fence down the half-mile driveway to your new home, which is an extraordinary sanctuary offering sophisticated living amidst nature's beauty. The residence, constructed with an unwavering commitment to quality, features 10-inch framed walls with 8-inch-thick stone exteriors, a poured concrete foundation, and a 40-year standing seam metal roof. Architectural artistry abounds with reclaimed white oak timbers, mortise and tenon joinery, and many custom-crafted details, including king and queen posts accented with acorns. The sprawling 3,000+ square foot stone terrace is an entertainer's dream, complete with a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen, a wood-burning fireplace, and views of meticulously maintained gardens, a putting green, and serene water features—all surrounded by 8-foot-high black iron fence. Inside, Bella Woods showcases walnut floors, radiant floor heating, and striking ceilings, from tongue-and-groove cathedral designs to coffered and barreled ceilings. Four masonry fireplaces provide a warm ambiance, complemented by Schonbek, Currey & Company, and Fine Art lighting. The gourmet kitchen is a culinary masterpiece with Wood-Mode cabinetry, pewter and granite countertops, a 3-fuel Ilve Italian range framed by natural stone pillars and a close-by scullery for effortless entertaining. The wine cellar, with its wrought iron door and reclaimed wormy chestnut walls and ceiling, is ideal for showcasing a collection of over 1,200 bottles. The owner's suite offers a private sanctuary with sweeping views, a cathedral ceiling, a limestone fireplace, and a spa-like bath with floor-to-ceiling marble walls, double walnut vanity, and an oversized steam shower. Step outside to a private screened porch with a natural stone fireplace, or through double doors that open to the terrace. This fully-automated smart home is equipped with cutting-edge systems, including geothermal HVAC, solar panels, an 80kw generator, and an irrigation system for the mature landscaping. There is a heated 3-car garage on the main level with full bath and a heated 1-car garage with an additional laundry on the lower level. Ancillary structures enhance the estate and feature a stone and glass greenhouse, a Morton building with an indoor pickleball court, a 2-stall barn with stone and cement board siding complete with water, gas and electricity. Also offered in this complete package are two additional renovated guest houses with garages. A restored 1909 log cabin with a stone foundation and custom stone fireplace adds historical charm to this extraordinary property.
