3000 Sherwood Forest St

Welcome to 3000 Sherwood Forest Circle. An immaculate 19-acre estate with gorgeous grounds and waterfront to Lake Waco. This private sanctuary secretly nestled next to Lake Waco is the setting for one of the most unique homes in the Waco community. Two different gated entrances provide this property with a remote feel even though it is located centrally to all that Waco has to offer. A private winding paved driveway leads you to the stately stone circle front parkway that surrounds a meticulously manicured courtyard garden and ornate fountain. The home itself welcomes you with a beautiful stone exterior with custom windows and expertly manicured lawn and landscaping. A slate roof adds to the old-world charm of this home and gives depth and character to the exterior. Stepping into the main entry you are welcomed by custom parquet hardwood floors and a custom curving iron staircase.

Two beautiful living areas allow your family the flexibility of multiple functional layouts. Custom arched doorways display the craftsmanship of the home's history, and the custom hammered copper fireplace hood begs you to come to sit in the wood-lined and wooden beamed den by a warm fire. A gourmet kitchen awaits with beautiful luxury appliances, and the layout gives options for informal meals in the light-filled breakfast nook or formal meals in the chandelier accented formal dining room.

Out the patio doors of the kitchen and den lies the massive covered patio providing a wonderful place to host guests and enjoy the surrounding views. A hidden butler staircase also leads you to the well-appointed second story that boasts a massive master bedroom with amazing views of the grounds as well as a seating area. The large master bathroom opens to a well-designed master closet equipped with a washer and dryer to maximize the functionality of the master suite. Two huge bedrooms welcome family members or guests with en-suite full bathrooms attached to each bedroom. A custom-built window seat makes one of the bedrooms truly special. The third floor might have the most charm and character in the home. Here you will find an incredible vaulted ceiling that is accented with breathtaking hardwood beams and gables and hand-carved trim work that make this space truly unique. This space can offer a variety of functions: a game room, a family room, a bedroom, or a library.

The basement also provides the flexibility of use with utility. Adjacent to the utility room there is an extra room that could also be used as a bedroom, gym, office, or game room. There is also a full bathroom in this space as well. A custom-built temperature-controlled 800+ bottle wine cellar also waits for you and your family to fill and enjoy. A large and fully functional laundry room with plenty of storage completes the basement and ensures the home will stay organized and well cared for. The side entry 3-car garage stores your vehicles and other large items out of sight from the front view. In the backyard of the home lies the well-appointed and recently updated guest house. It boasts a full bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and a second story over the garage that could easily be converted into a second bedroom or game room for entertaining guests. One of the most unique features of this property is its private access to Lake Waco.

A winding trail leads you down to a fire pit hidden among the huge Oaks and then finally down to the shores of Lake Waco's Landon Branch cove. There is also a paved driveway to make access to the lake easier in a vehicle. 3000 Sherwood Forest is a one-of-a-kind estate and a special place you don't want to miss!
