About This Home

OPEN HOUSE 10/25/25 10:00 A.M. - 2:00 P.M. Welcome to PARADISE- This beauty is an exceptional, one-of-a-kind estate tucked away on 7.23 private acres in the peaceful heart of Milton, Florida. Built in 1995 by a master masonry contractor, this home is a testament to quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and timeless Southern charm. Outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers will fall in love with this property that truly brings the outdoors in. Whether you’re casting a line in your stocked private pond—teeming with bass, catfish, and bream—or exploring the surrounding acreage, this is a hunter’s and fisherman’s paradise. Step inside and you’ll immediately notice the artisanal detail throughout, including a custom brick cooktop surround and brick-accented breakfast bar in the kitchen, paired beautifully with granite countertops and ample space for gathering. The open layout, high ceilings, and warm finishes create a home that feels both luxurious and inviting. Out back, the amenities are simply spectacular. A two-level deck sets the stage for unforgettable Florida evenings, featuring a masonry fireplace, charming gazebo, and a Big Green Egg grill that conveys. Enjoy summer days by the in-ground pool, or host game days and cookouts in the outdoor entertainment area—complete with a TV, custom-built cabinetry, and a full outdoor kitchen. The impressive 30x40 detached garage is a standout feature on its own, offering endless versatility. Whether used as a workshop, storage space, or hobby haven, it includes a half bath, remote-controlled garage door, and an extended 20x40 lean-to for even more covered space. The home has been thoughtfully updated for modern efficiency and peace of mind, including: Spray foam insulation in the attic New impact-rated windows (2022) Impact garage door (2022) New roof (2023) New hot water heater (2025) Perfectly blending rustic elegance with everyday comfort, this home is more than a residence—it’s a lifestyle.
