4 Emerald Drive Tucked at the very end of Emerald Drive and wrapped in 3 wooded acres, this South Joplin estate offers a level of privacy and presence rarely found. A winding approach opens to over 5, 000 square feet of intentional design--where soaring ceilings, a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, and walls of windows create a grand yet inviting great room built for gathering. The recently redesigned kitchen is both striking and functional, featuring custom cabinetry, an oversized island, and seamless flow for entertaining. The primary suite is a retreat of its own with a fireplace, solarium, flex space for office or lounge, and a spa-caliber travertine steam shower. Each additional bedroom offers its own en-suite bath, providing comfort and privacy throughout. Designed for hosting on any scale, the outdoor living rivals a private resort--complete with a diving pool, hot tub, pool house with full kitchen and bath, covered patio with built-in grill and fireplace, plus expansive entertaining space. A 4-car garage with pass-through door and a 24x30 shop provide exceptional flexibility. Solid 2x6 construction, storm shelter, whole-house water treatment system, and thoughtful upgrades throughout reflect the quality behind the beauty. All just minutes from medical, dining, and shopping in desirable South Joplin.
