Situated on 5+/- acres on prestigious Dorris Road, privacy and tranquility await at this spectacular gated lakefront estate in the heart of Milton. A long driveway creates a dramatic approach to this sprawling home prefaced by a motor court with flanking parking areas. A porte coch re leads to the home's private six-car garage featuring two car lifts. The stone-lined covered front porch invites with a daybed swing and space for rocking chairs, the perfect setting for relaxing. Enter the home through double front doors into the grand foyer where stone floors, rich woodwork and a gracefully curved central open staircase impress. Inviting living areas with 12-foot ceilings, solid mahogany doors and oversized mantels create grand yet intimate entertaining spaces. Enjoy numerous French doors opening to the expansive rear deck from many main-level living rooms, all with stunning lake views. Pristine hardwood floors flow throughout and create a cohesive flow between rooms. The stunning kitchen features a sizeable, tiered island with seating and granite double ogee-edge countertops, a copper farmhouse sink, furniture-style cabinetry, a Wolf gas range with a griddle and a double oven, a pot filler and a hidden scullery. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the casual dining area and the vaulted keeping room, with a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace. Sliding French doors provide easy access to the outdoor grilling station, fireside sitting area and covered pavilion. Supported by a colonnade of stone arches, the rear deck creates a large, shaded covered terrace below with a summer kitchen, dining and sitting areas and a second grilling station with a beverage center. The refreshing pool offers a generously sized shallow end, two tanning shelves, a deep end and a spa. This fully fenced resort-style backyard includes a full-size sports court, an expansive grassy play area, professional landscaping and immense privacy. Venture back inside the home to discover the serene main-level primary suite. This retreat commences with an entry foyer opening to the spacious bedroom and adjacent sitting area lined with windows on three sides. A stately fireplace punctuates a wall of built-ins, and there is a tucked-away morning bar. A second fireplace and a dry sauna are luxurious additions to the en suite bathroom. Separate vanities offer abundant storage, and a private deck serves as a peaceful escape. The upper level boasts 10-foot ceilings, a second primary suite and luxurious en suite bedrooms, each with the same level of finishes and a second laundry room. The living spaces continue on the terrace level, which includes a gym with two showers, a billiard room, a state-of-the-art media room, a stunning wine cellar with a tasting room, a large craft room and a quiet guest suite. A convenient elevator provides access to all three levels. Additional noteworthy features include a two-story wood-lined study on the main level, eight fireplaces, a 26-camera security system, a one-bedroom, one-bathroom carriage house, a new Control4 home automation system, as well as numerous other upgrades throughout all three levels and the grounds.
