Built in 2001, this palatial and exquisite masterpiece displays the absolute finest that Hunting Valley has to offer. The estate spans over six acres of land, subtly tucked amid a hillside with every facet crafted by vivid imagination and attention to detail. No expense has been spared in the creation of this immaculate residence. The stucco outdoor entrance opens to the chandelier-lit grand foyer. Double, iron-rod front-staircases join the first and second floors in this ornate and Italian marble welcoming entry. The home emanates luxury with the formal dining room embellished with gathered fabric ceiling, and elegant living room with a grand piano wired throughout the interior and exterior speaker system and wall of windows. The kitchen, with separate oval-breakfast room, is a true culinary work of art providing a butler’s pantry with china cabinet, light maple cabinetry, granite counter tops, double sinks, dishwashers, ovens, refrigerator drawers, and a hot water spigot. The two-story cherry wood library has set lighting, a built-in desk, hand-carved rope molding, painted ceiling replicating the Iliad & Odyssey, and access to the second floor via spiral staircase. The cherry wood carries through to the main-floor office—a private space for work or relaxation. The main-floor master bedroom, the first of two, has a full sitting room, gas fireplace, built-in shelving, his and her custom closets/dressing room, and a master bath with Jacuzzi tub, steam shower, and Philippine mother-of-pearl tiling. The second-floor master bedroom is equally impressive with a walk-in cedar closet, refrigerator, and second Jacuzzi. The additional three bedrooms are custom designed, and specifically geared toward children. These thematic rooms provide spacious closets, built-in shelving, and full baths with features from hand-painted, custom glass tiling to a ceiling skylight. Children can also enjoy a study area prepped for up to four computers, and a circus tent inspired recreation room. The lower level of the home satisfies every degree of entertainment. Beautified by an enormous saltwater aquarium, the space offers a hardwood dance floor with built-in speakers, full bar and icemaker, game room with authentic French décor, and marble bath. A theatre that doubles as a conference room, mimics a trip to the movies with a fully functional concession stand just outide the genuine theatre doors. Inside moviegoers can relax in custom-made couch seating under the two-tiered ceiling. Fiber optic lights shine from within the theatre walls, accented by Italian outer wall lights. The guest suite serves a full second home overlooking the putting green with two bedrooms, two baths, a full kitchen with laundry facilities, and its own garage entrance. Additional interior highlights include an elevator servicing all four floors, AMX home automation controlling virtually every room feature, video security system, centralized vacuum, Ethernet, T1 line, and wireless network capability, and a full exercise facility, naturally lit with custom glass walls, full bath with steam shower and sauna, and picturesque views overlooking the pool and hot tub. Separate from the main residence the property hosts a pool house. The structure is perfect for entertaining with a kitchen on each of its two floors, three baths, game room, two-story living room, marble breakfast bar, and patio with an outdoor grilling area. The property is filled with picturesque landscaping designs that set an ideal and appropriate setting for this architectural masterpiece. The exterior and interior were conceptualized as one, creating a sense of continuity and fluid transition. The hillside is comprised of over 600 tons of rock, with a water slide straight into the pool. The property also features a six-car garage, in-ground lighting, full sprinkler system, draining functions, and lit walking paths and trees. There were no short cuts taken in the conception or construction of this dream home—an accomplishment reflected in every aspect of this extraordinary residence.
