Traditional elegance meets modern sophistication in this meticulously maintained estate home in gated Baker Plantation. Located in S. Tyler and zoned for award-winning Whitehouse ISD, this stunning home is situated on just short of an acre lot in a quiet cul de sac. Nothing has been overlooked in the updating and care of this property. The home is equipped with 25 year solar panels, a whole home 20 KW generator, storm shelter, Mosquito Misting system, and a security system with cameras. The HVAC (3 units) and tankless water heaters (2 units) are all less than 2 years old. Step through the double front doors and into your dream home, featuring one of the most functional floor plans you can imagine! Most of the square footage is found in a beautifully laid out one story home, but with the addition of an upstairs 5th bedroom, full bathroom and extra flex space, that could be an entire mother-in-law suite, a guest room with play room, or even a home office with sleeping quarters...the possibilities are endless! On the main level, you'll love the split floor plan, featuring a private primary suite on one side of the home. Primary bath is luxurious and spa-like and even has a sauna! There are three other bedrooms and two bathrooms on the other side of the home. Large open living room, gourmet chef's kitchen, and fabulous formal dining room, all lend themselves to easy living and entertaining. Don't miss the media room with black diamond projector screen, electric fireplace, and a black leather wall. As if that weren't enough, there's also a workout room that could easily be a home office or small sitting room as well. And, finally, we get to the outdoor space. A truly resort-like backyard that will have you never wanting to leave home! Gorgeous sparkling gunite pool, covered porch with outdoor kitchen, and the pool cabana area to entertain to your heart's desire! Custom landscaping everywhere - no expense has been spared to make this home an absolute showstopper!
