About 8 Shadywood Lane
There are listings. Then there are legends. Originally built for a television production, this one-of-a-kind estate in Melissa's prestigious gated enclave was designed not merely to impress but to transport. On 1.25+ acres of manicured grounds with tranquil walking paths & over $500,000 invested in landscaping alone, you can enjoy the best of nature daily with beauty at every turn. From the moment you arrive, the architecture and warmth of detail tell a story of intentional design — every room a nod to the elevated vacation lifestyle its owners have always loved. The updated gourmet kitchen is anchored by professional-grade appliances, built-in refrigerator and freezer, and a double breakfast bar made for gathering. There is a sitting area ideal for wine tastings or hosting mahjong and an executive study ideal for a bourbon aficionado. Escape to the primary suite that lives as its own private world — spacious sitting area with tranquil views, updated bath, custom closet, total retreat. A downstairs guest suite with the kind of privacy, living space and finish your guests will remember. Upstairs, a Texas-sized game room and fully loaded media room with kitchenette — built for play and built to last. Outside, the infinity-edge pool and spa with cascading waterfall grotto sets the tone. Cook under the covered outdoor kitchen, gather around the fire pit under open Texas skies, or work your short game on the private multi-hole putting green. The pool house is a destination of its own — full bar, dry sauna, double-head steam shower, two levels of living, and a balcony overlooking the pool. This two story addition is also perfect for separate living quarters. With $260,000+ in additional owner upgrades, every inch of this property has been considered. Five-star is a feeling. This address delivers it daily. Ask agent for a full list of home features & improvements. Country Ridge is conveniently located off Hwy 75 for an easy commute and restaurants, shopping, PGA, & more!
