A Majestic High Grove Estate – Where Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Luxury Welcome to one of the most magnificent homes ever built in High Grove — a residence that exudes sophistication, craftsmanship, and grandeur at every turn. With only two owners since its construction — the original builder and the current homeowners — this estate has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully cherished. From the moment you arrive, the European-inspired details set this home apart. The lamp posts imported from Belgium and the ornate iron fencing from Holland lend an old-world charm that beautifully complements the home’s stately presence. A majestic fountain anchors the circular drive, creating a breathtaking first impression for guests. Inside, the grand foyer welcomes you with soaring cathedral ceilings, solid oak floors, and expansive walls ideal for showcasing art or placing your grand piano. The cascading staircase and timeless architectural design evoke the feeling of a private castle. Built to entertain, this residence has hosted many of Tallahassee’s most distinguished gatherings. Multiple living and family rooms, two wood-burning fireplaces, and custom crown and trim molding reflect a level of craftsmanship rarely found today. The gourmet kitchen features a grand granite-topped center island, abundant counter space, and a separate butler’s kitchen complete with an additional refrigerator and three extended prep areas. Whether you’re preparing an intimate dinner or catering a large event, this kitchen delivers both beauty and function. The entertainment suite is a showstopper, with a full bar, glass shelving, and ample open space — perfect for hosting lively gatherings, football watch parties, or even a dance floor beneath its warm, inviting glow. The home boasts five oversized bedrooms, some featuring custom built-in bookshelves and plantation shutters throughout. The east wing is dedicated to the primary suite, a private sanctuary with a luxurious spa-style bath, soaking tub, double vanities, and an expansive walk-in closet spacious enough for a dressing or dance area. Upstairs, discover a private gym, office, or library, along with two large bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bathroom. The downstairs west wing offers two additional bedrooms and baths, providing a comfortable, self-contained guest retreat with its own living area. Step outside to the screened veranda overlooking a sparkling pool framed by tropical palms, ideal for hammock lounging or outdoor gatherings. The fully equipped outdoor kitchen beneath the gazebo makes alfresco dining a breeze. The manicured grounds create an enchanting backdrop for both quiet mornings and elegant evening entertaining.
