1465 Briarcliffe Drive Incredible private retreat in Powell. Some homes offer luxury. This one also offers an escape. Set on a large wooded lot with an additional adjoining wooded acre, this exceptional stone-and-stucco residence offers a private retreat defined by mature trees, beautiful views and landscaping, and a setting that is hard to recreate. A lagoon-style pool anchors the backyard, nestled among the trees in a grotto-like setting. Stone walkways connect inviting patios, a deck with gazebo and a separate patio area. An expansive screened-in porch offers a spectacular setting for morning coffee or quiet evenings. Inside, quality craftsmanship meets an open, inviting floor plan. At 6500 finished SF, the home is large while providing a coziness with separate gathering areas, large windows, and incredible light. An inviting foyer opens up to a large living room with a wall of curved windows and great southern light throughout the day. A spacious white country chefs kitchen is complemented by extensive built-in cabinetry, high end appliances, and a large pantry. The first-floor primary suite is a retreat of its own, featuring a private sitting area and spa-like bath, and 2 walk in closets. An executive-style office sits just off the foyer. Three spacious upstairs bedroom suites offer their own privacy. The finished walkup lower level brings entertaining and recreation together with a large bar and kitchenette, a generous family room, a small library setting, workout areas, and a space for a pool table. Direct pool access and a bathroom with steam shower make the transition from outdoors effortless. A cedar storage room, built-in gift-wrapping station, sewing craft/area, and laundry area are great added spaces. The lower level could serve as its own private guest suite. Two HVAC systems, one newly installed in October 2026, two updated water heaters, an approximately 10-year-old roof and waterproofed basement walls are included updates in this beautiful home.
