Nestled on a private hilltop just a stone’s throw from SouthPark, 2357 Rock Creek Drive is an exquisite architectural gem that seamlessly merges timeless craftsmanship with tranquil natural design. This elegant residence is set within 4.91 acres of verdant, timbered land, creating a sanctuary where the elements of fire and water beautifully complement the environment. Built with lasting stone and cedar, the home radiates privacy, warmth, and an intimate connection to the surrounding nature. Showcasing remarkable architectural elements, this picturesque five-bedroom, six bath one powder room estate beautifully blends old world charm with modern sophistication including reclaimed antique beams from an 1840s Rock Hill log home and Victorian doors salvaged from historic St. Louis estates. Five fireplaces, vaulted ceilings, and bespoke millwork are featured throughout, with the original home having graced Southern Living's cover in 1983. A comprehensive renovation in the early 2000s doubled the home's size. The stunning chef's kitchen caters to culinary enthusiasts and entertainers alike featuring a large island, gas cooking, and state of the art appliances. Dual primary suites are thoughtfully designed, offering luxurious baths and abundant storage. A theatre-style media room on the ground level opens to pool terraces, while dual basements provide flexible spaces for guests and entertainment, complete with additional bedrooms and a wet bar. Outside, a private oasis awaits featuring a beautiful stone-framed pool and rustic pavilion that overlook the expansive wooded acreage. Flowing ponds, sunken terraces, and an outdoor kitchen create an ambiance of retreat and relaxation. An inviting fire pit and a vast grass play field further enhance the property's allure making it a true haven in the heart of SouthPark.
