Tour one of the most elegant and distinctive luxury home floor plans we have EVER built. This gorgeous, large house design is located on a private wooded lot with a view of the water. The luxury estate floor plan is expansive, boasting over 17,000 square feet of living space. With six bedroom suites, nine bathrooms, an open floor concept, and outdoor living spaces, this huge modern house is ideal for entertaining and hosting friends and family. Exceptional craftsmanship and high-end amenities offer luxury, comfort, and functionality. This custom timber frame home design was based on the 17,000 sq ft Luxury Estate - UCT floor plan and has upgrades that make this home entirely unique.

Let's explore the inside of this massive mansion floor plan, starting with the main level.

• Great Room: The tour of this large house design begins in the great room. This space is grand with a towering feature wall of windows that overlooks the wooded area and water. Natural light floods this space. A massive stone fireplace with a 13-foot-wide chaise climbs 18 feet tall, showcasing the scale of this room. A vaulted ceiling creates an open and airy feeling in this space. Hand-hewn timbers add a nice contrast to the drywall and stone. The open floor concept carries into the kitchen.
• Kitchen: The modern kitchen layout was built with entertaining in mind. A 16 and a half foot island with seating for seven is in the center of the kitchen. The island features a sink, making food prep effortless. This gourmet kitchen has high-end appliances like a 48-inch WOLF gas stove top and oven, and two matching stainless steel refrigerators. Frameless cabinetry adds to the overall modern aesthetic of this luxury house design. Under-cabinet lighting was also incorporated into this space.
