Discover an extraordinary private retreat at 289 Ashbrook Drive, set on nearly two serene acres within Red Oak Farms. Though moments from the energy of Augusta, this mid-century modern estate feels like a secluded countryside escape--offering rare privacy, space, and effortless access to the city's finest amenities. Originally envisioned as an intimate hunting lodge, the residence has been artfully reimagined into a sophisticated sanctuary tailored for both refined daily living and grand-scale entertaining. Expansive interiors transition seamlessly to outdoor living spaces, where poolside afternoons, sunset views from the dock, and elegant summer gatherings unfold as part of everyday life. At the heart of the home, a spacious chef's kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with granite countertops, a gas cooktop, double ovens, and generous prep and storage space. It flows naturally into an oversized breakfast area ideal for intimate dinners or lively celebrations. Just beyond, an enormous 576 foot heated and cooled sunroom providing flexible living space--perfect for a billiards room, game lounge, or additional living space--framed by sweeping views of the pool and tranquil pond. Distinct architectural details enrich the home's character, including three fireplaces, a charming library/living room, and wide-plank flooring in the dining and family rooms. A dedicated game room with wet bar and beverage refrigerator enhances the home's entertaining appeal. A two-car garage, circular drive, and additional front parking ensure abundant space for residents and guests alike. Designed for comfort and privacy, each of the four bedrooms features its own en suite bath, including a private lower-level suite. The expansive primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with five closets making for lots of clothes storage. In total, the residence offers four full baths and two half baths, thoughtfully arranged for both function and elegance. The fully finished basement further offers the home versatility, offering a private bedroom with full bath alongside two additional flexible rooms perfectly suited for offices, fitness space, or hobby studios. The laundry area and an additional half bath enhance everyday functionality, while direct access to the garage provides seamless convenience and privacy. Outdoor living is nothing short of exceptional. A covered porch and multiple decks overlook the 18-by-36-foot in-ground pool and peaceful pond beyond. A remarkable 60-foot waterside deck and attached dock extend the experience to the water's edge--just steps from the back door--creating a setting that feels both luxurious and restorative. Recent updates reflect attentive stewardship and modern convenience, including a new roof and comprehensive HVAC updates in 2019, substantial kitchen renovations in 2020, a new pool liner in 2021, and a water heater replacement in 2024. Smart home enhancements include Nest thermostats and a Phillips Smart Lighting System, with detailed maintenance records available. Ideally positioned near Fort Eisenhower, I-20, Downtown Augusta, and Evans, this distinctive property offers a rare blend of accessibility and complete seclusion. More than a home, it is a legacy estate--rich in character, designed for connection, and ready to begin its next chapter.
