EPITOME OF ELEGANCE--MODERN SINGLE STORY ON AN ESTATE LOT IN A GATED ENCLAVE WITHIN THE COVETED GOLF COURSE MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITY OF CIBOLO CANYONS!! This exceptional four bedroom, four bath home with three car garage and no back neighbor will leave you wanting for nothing-from its sophisticated charm to its location next to a world class golf course to a floor plan that answers every need in the most upscale of ways. Wind through the tree-lined parkway to the gates of Estancia. The home impresses from the street dramatically set on a rise. Its stucco and limestone exterior is enhanced by a terraced, professionally landscaped yard with xeriscape touches of river rock that blend into the alluring architecture that includes a side-entry garage tucked back out of view. Step inside to be greeted by a magnificent warmth, sometimes so hard to achieve in a luxury home. This floor plan provides an incredible flow in living spaces, perfect for entertaining, and carefully designed privacy for the bedroom spaces. An expansive foyer offers interesting angles and wall space to display your treasured art as well as a nook for sitting area. To the right find a generous office with lovely view through plantation shutters. The formal dining room is sized to fit a ten seat table, or use it as a flex room as this seller did (music space with piano). A bar area, dressed up by an art niche directly across, welcomes at the end of the foyer with plenty of counter space and nooks for mixing drinks, a coffee set up and more. Here, the home's 10-foot ceilings open up to 16-foot soaring cathedral height with elegant beams framing a stunning living room with spectacular limestone electric fireplace for atmosphere, sweeping view of the backyard space and open to a dream kitchen. Ever wanted enough granite counter space to cook elaborate meals and long island with elevated bar to entertain while you cook? You've found it. And, the piece de resistance is the like-new gourmet gas range! Step from here into the bar area with large walk-in pantry for supplies. A breakfast nook is large enough to fit a full sized dining table. Slip back into the primary suite for a real treat. Trey ceiling and spacious enough for a king-sized bed, you might think these are the highlights, but no! The ensuite bath with travertine floors belongs in a resort at 30 feet long and 11 feet wide. The first of two massive walk-in closets start at the right then love the separate granite vanities, one with seat space and both with plenty of counter. Awash with natural light from a beautiful window, the space relaxes naturally. A stand-alone soaking tub adorns the center, across from art shelves and built-in storage cabinets. At the end find the second huge walk-in close with window, water closet, tumbled travertine walk-in shower. Back in the main home find two additional bedroom wing, one with the dual primary ensuite off the living space. The hallway starts with a large utility room and access to the two car attached garage (the other single-car garage is accessed from the master bath). The second master suite is an oversized room with adjoining full bath with walk-in shower. The second bedroom wing is off the foyer and a Jack & Jill bathroom between the two bedrooms. Outside find a covered patio with cozy gas log fireplace so thoughtfully designed that it is both protected from the elements while still displaying a peaceful view of the landscaped third of an acre. The rock wall adds to the class and quiet as the private neighborhood entrance sits beyond the fence. There is plenty of room to add a pool but who needs that with the amenties of Cibolo Canyons Resort Community including a lazy river! The private feel here is accentuated by no neighbor directly in front of the home which is dedicated green space. Live economically while in luxury too-Imagine Homes prides itself in building green and low utility bills and this home is a prime example. Paradise awaits so don't wait!
