Description

Set on 3.87 private acres with direct access to Sope Creek, this fully reimagined residence—renovated by Rybo Capital with design finishes by Carl Mattison Design—presents as effectively new construction, with a level of finish and execution rarely achieved in a renovation. Tucked within a quiet cul-de-sac, the setting offers both privacy and a meaningful connection to the surrounding landscape. A dramatic double-height entry sets the tone, where a two-story framed cased opening and French doors lead into the foyer, finished in classic check flooring. The layout unfolds with intention: a dedicated home office and formal dining room flank the entry, while the fireside formal living room opens seamlessly to the keeping room beyond. Thoughtfully integrated, the keeping room provides access to a powder room and a well-appointed wine cellar, creating a natural flow for both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen is a true focal point, rising to two-story ceilings and anchored by custom inset white cabinetry, a substantial white oak island, Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, and a sculptural plaster hood. A full suite of professional-grade appliances is complemented by an oversized walk-in pantry with extensive cabinetry, as well as a separate butler’s pantry featuring additional storage, stone surfaces, and an under-counter beverage refrigerator. A main-level ensuite guest bedroom is privately positioned, ideal for visitors or extended stays. Upstairs, both a formal front staircase and an informal staircase off the kitchen—each finished with iron balusters—lead to the bedroom level. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering a fireside bedroom, dual custom walk-in closets with oak cabinetry, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a frameless glass walk-in shower, and a freestanding soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms include an oversized suite, all served by two beautifully renovated bathrooms and a conveniently located laundry room. The finished terrace level is designed for versatility and entertaining, featuring a wet bar, full bathroom, and expansive recreation spaces including a family room and game room, with ample space to accommodate a future bedroom if desired. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a vaulted, covered rear deck overlooking an expansive, level grass play yard. A meandering path leads directly to Sope Creek, offering a rare and tranquil extension of the property. Additional features include a three-car garage, new roof, new systems, and a new driveway—underscoring the comprehensive nature of the renovation. Located in the highly regarded Walton High School district, this is a design-forward home that lives effortlessly, inside and out.
