EXCLUSIVE ESTATE IN THE WINKLER MILL / WINKLER POND HISTORIC DISTRICT A rare offering where privacy, nature, and refined living converge - this extraordinary estate spans 7 secluded acres and delivers over 4,000 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space, just minutes from downtown Rochester. Tucked far from the road behind a long, private drive, the setting evokes the feeling of Northern Michigan luxury living - complete with rolling terrain, mature oaks, pines, lilacs, and over 25 newly planted trees creating a natural, wooded sanctuary. With a protected utility easement to the south, your views and privacy are preserved indefinitely. Inside, the home is defined by scale, light, and connection to nature. Expansive living areas flow seamlessly through an open-concept layout, anchored by a stunning great room with oversized Andersen windows and doorwalls that frame breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and wildlife. The residence offers 5 bedrooms and 4.1 baths, including a versatile walkout lower level designed for elevated living - featuring a private guest or in-law suite, multiple entertaining spaces, and a dedicated game room. Recent enhancements include a fully updated kitchen with newer appliances, renovated baths, new wood flooring, designer lighting, newer roof and gutters, and a freshly painted exterior. Comfort is optimized year-round with three high-efficiency zoned HVAC systems. Outdoors, experience true tranquility from the pebble stone patio, surrounded by nature and frequented by foxes, turkeys, and other native wildlife. A newly constructed barn-style garage offers exceptional flexibility - ideal for equestrian use, hobby space, or premium storage, with zoning that allows for horses and future expansion opportunities. Enjoy direct access to over 2 miles of nearby walking trails, all while being moments from upscale dining, boutique shopping, and top-rated schools. Discreet. Private. Irreplaceable. Opportunities like this - where land, location, and lifestyle align - are seldom available.
