10221 GOLDEN EAGLE DRIVE PRICE REDUCED TO BELOW RECENT APPRAISAL! A rare opportunity has arrived in the coveted community of Thurston Groves - where homes seldom come to market and where privacy, craftsmanship, and natural beauty come together in a way that is truly unmatched. Nestled on a serene water view lot and framed by mature trees, this custom residence welcomes you with a charming courtyard and locally handcrafted iron-accented double doors. The moment you step inside, the home's character becomes unmistakable. Working alongside a master craftsman and antiques dealer, the original owners curated architectural details sourced from Europe, creating a one-of-a-kind living experience. The heart of the home is the chef's kitchen, featuring custom pine cabinetry, granite counter tops, and an antique apothecary door imported from the Netherlands-its ironwork and textured glass allowing light to filter through while concealing the pantry. Antique pine beams were transformed into both fireplace mantles, and the media rooms over-door surround was once a European fireplace facade, carefully reimagined to fit the space. These thoughtful touches elevate the home far beyond the ordinary. The open layout flows seamlessly from the kitchen into the living room, where a fireplace and expansive water views create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the living area is a media room which offers a cinematic retreat, while the dining room and butler's pantry-with wine fridge-make entertaining effortless. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, complete with built-in fireplace, sitting area, French doors to the pool and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with garden tub, vanity and separate shower. Upstairs, a spacious sitting area opens to a large balcony overlooking the pool and tranquil water views-perfect for morning coffee or evening refreshments. Each of the three upstairs bedrooms includes its own private en-suite bath for ultimate comfort and privacy. The two front bedrooms upstairs feature French doors opening to Juliet balconies overlooking the front courtyard. Outdoors, the experience continues with a sparkling pool, lush landscaping, private "secret garden, " and multiple lounging areas that create a true resort-like escape. Meticulously maintained and in pristine condition this home features numerous upgrades including a new roof, new A/C unit, new exterior paint, new pool control panel with mobile app, and updated lighting.
