This 47± acre property, located just south of Farmington, is a unique retreat tailored to those seeking a peaceful, contemporary haven surrounded by nature. The home, designed by architect David Mason in 1993 is just under 9,000 square feet.  It is a testament to the local stone and granite craftsmanship.  

Once you pass the entry gate you drive down a private drive that meanders through huge granite boulders that are native to the area.  This same granite was used extensively in several elements of the house and the landscaping.  There is also a recently remodeled 2-bedroom guest house.

Mature landscaping provides a park-like ambiance, creating an ideal backdrop for relaxation and entertainment. The residence is designed for hosting gatherings, featuring a Great Room with a wood-burning double-sided fireplace, a recreation room with a full-size wet bar and pool table, a large open loft area, formal dining room, and a kitchen with granite countertops and a breakfast area overlooking the serene lake.

The house exudes brightness and tranquility, thanks to its vaulted ceilings and a master bedroom suite offering stunning lake views. The home has 195 windows, 94 steel columns, and the great room has a domed hexagonal skylight with 29 foot high granite clad columns. In total, there are 4 bedrooms and 7 baths, with a 5-car attached garage for convenience. The partial walk-out basement houses the geothermal heating and cooling systems, along with a private vault.

Situated 7 miles south of Farmington, this estate offers a secluded escape while remaining accessible, with Cape Girardeau 65 miles to the west and Chesterfield Valley 84 miles to the north. For more details, contact Phil Brown at 314-753-7444.
