Looking for a large, private gated estate lot with the freedom to build the kind of home that most communities simply won't allow? Welcome to one of just ten exclusive opportunities within Watkins Glen Private Estates, where privacy, space, and true architectural flexibility come together. Beautifully situated on a pristine 2.5-acre wooded homesite, this custom luxury estate by Exeter Building Company is accessed through a gated entry and a long, winding private drive that leads you through mature hardwoods to a hidden retreat. The thoughtfully designed architecture blends modern cottage elegance with the ease and comfort of primarily one-level ranch living. Soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, graciously scaled rooms, and refined luxury finishes create a light-filled and inviting atmosphere. Every window and door is intentionally placed to capture serene views of the surrounding natural landscape, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The current plan features a first-floor primary suite, two additional main-level guest suites, a gourmet kitchen, and generous living and entertaining spaces designed for both everyday comfort and hosting on a grand scale. What truly sets this opportunity apart is the ability to fully customize the design to suit your specific vision and lifestyle. Room sizes can be expanded, layouts can be reimagined, additional bedrooms or living areas can be added, and even a second level or separate outbuildings can be incorporated if desired. Whether you envision a larger garage, boat or RV storage, a sport court, pool, guest house, or expanded entertaining areas, the flexibility exists to create a home tailored precisely to your needs. This is more than a home, it is a rare opportunity to design and build a private luxury estate without the typical restrictions found in most communities.
