Discover a rare hilltop sanctuary where luxury finds a permanent home at this elevated Encore retreat. This stunning home is nestled in the highly sought-after Encore enclave by David Weekley Homes, where thoughtful design, unrivaled privacy, and resort-style amenities create the perfect place to call home. Perched on a commanding hilltop cul-de-sac lot with sweeping long-range views, this rare floor plan offers significantly more living space than competing models, providing the essential flexibility you need for hobbies, pets, and guests. The true showstopper is the PREMIER .25-acre lot-a distinguished rarity in this community. Beautifully enclosed by a custom wrought iron fence, this outdoor retreat feels like a secluded private homestead. Whether it's pets playing, curating gardening projects, sophisticated outdoor entertaining, or grandchildren practicing "Hail Mary" passes, this backyard was engineered for enjoyment. With stately front and back covered patios, the outdoor living opportunities here are peerless. Inside, the home is equally impressive, featuring dramatic 10-foot ceilings, elegant crown molding, and cascading natural light. A cozy, sunlit office welcomes you upon entry, while the open-concept layout draws you into the heart of the home: a light-filled kitchen centered around an oversized island. Featuring a gas range with vent hood and thoughtful upgrades like custom pull-out drawers, the space is anchored by a walk-in pantry with massive, custom-designed storage. This area is perfectly complemented by a bespoke coffee bar that adds sophistication to your mornings. The living room exudes warmth with a classic gas fireplace and a dining area perfectly scaled for grand dinner parties. What truly steals the show is the breathtaking wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, framing uninterrupted views of your private backyard with no neighboring homes in sight-a seamless fusion of indoor elegance and outdoor serenity. All three bedrooms, including the palatial primary suite, feature electric room-darkening shades and custom built-in storage systems for effortless organization. The primary ensuite bath is a sanctuary, boasting a signature Super Shower and dual vanities. Another feature that defines this home as a standout is the expansive upstairs loft. With 9-foot ceilings and tucked-away storage, this flexible retreat offers endless possibilities-be it a professional craft studio, private library, media room, or high-end fitness space. A spacious two-car garage with stepless entry adds ultimate ease to everyday living. Beyond the home, the lifestyle is unparalleled. The Retreat features a private clubhouse, pickleball, and a resort-style pool exclusive to residents, while full access to Sterling on the Lake provides lakeside pavilions, kayaking, and miles of scenic trails. Best of all, HOA-provided lawn maintenance ensures you have more time to enjoy the lifestyle you've worked so hard to achieve. This is more than just a home; it's your new legacy.
