Property Description
Custom-built brick home offering 4,962 +/- square feet of finished living space on 3 private acres in the Lake Forest subdivision of Troy, MO 63379. This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home features a main-floor primary suite, a finished walkout lower level, and an oversized garage with dedicated workshop space, all in the Troy R-III School District roughly 10 minutes from Troy and 20 minutes from Wentzville. A two-story arched entry opens to a soaring foyer, with hardwood and ceramic tile carrying through the main living areas. The kitchen anchors the main level with custom cabinetry, a center island with breakfast bar, solid surface countertops, a walk-in pantry, double ovens, and a built-in electric cooktop, with an adjoining breakfast room for everyday meals. A separate formal dining room sits just off the kitchen for holidays and entertaining, and the Great Room opens beyond it with a fireplace, coffered ceiling, and crown molding. Also on the main level: a private home office, a dedicated main-floor laundry room, and the primary suite, with expansive walk-in closets and a spa-style bath featuring a jetted soaking tub, separate shower, and dual vanities. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath share the level with a 33x12 bonus room that works as a media room, game room, or playroom. The finished walkout lower level is built for gathering. A full wet bar anchors a second living area, joined by an exercise room, a sauna and spa room, a fourth bedroom, and a full bath. As a true walkout rather than a standard basement, it works easily as an in-law suite, guest quarters, or second living space. Outdoors, a covered back patio overlooks the acreage with a fire pit area beyond, and the 3-acre lot leaves room for a shop, pool, or garden. Major systems are already handled: new roof in 2022, new main-level HVAC in 2023, and a new upper-level HVAC unit in 2025. Privacy, acreage, and estate-scale space in southern Lincoln County, with an easy Highway 61 commute to Wentzville, St. Charles County, and the greater St. Louis Metro Area.
