## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to one of Lafayette's most extraordinary estates. This true one-of-a-kind masterpiece sits on over 25 private acres and boasts more than 2,000 feet of scenic Wildcat Creek frontage. Custom built in 2011 to capture the timeless charm of a 100+ year-old home, every inch of this property blends historic character with modern comfort. From the authentic push-button light switches and custom wood work, to the radiant floor heating throughout, no detail was overlooked. The home is engineered for efficiency with 2x6 construction, foam and batt insulation, radiant coils in all three furnaces, and an outdoor wood boiler that can heat the entire home through winter at virtually no cost. Enjoy peaceful mornings on the screened-in porch, entertain around the outdoor fireplace, or host guests in the full one-bedroom apartment above the heated three-car garage. The long, winding driveway is lined with street lights and surrounded by manicured landscaping, an irrigation system, and abundant wildlife. If you've been searching for the perfect mix of land, privacy, craftsmanship, and comfort, this is it.
