Luxury Defines This Larger-Than-Life Rural McKinney Estate
Share News:
Situated on 19.5 acres of serene American heartland, this pastoral palace at 8580 County Road 167 in north McKinney offers incredible scenery, open spaces, and plenty of possibilities. The 7,591 square-foot, six-bedroom, eight-bathroom home with 19.5 acres is listed by Allison Tibbetts of The Cliff Freeman Group brokered by eXp Realty for $3.59 million.
As you know, northern Collin County has absolutely exploded with growth. Homes were being snatched up as far as builders could build them. The good thing about growth is modern conveniences and brand new infrastructure. Grocery stores, restaurants, Baylor McKinney — they’re all fresh and new. (Relatively new. When Baylor McKinney was built in 2012, the city’s growth spurt had already doubled the population. Now, we’re in four-digit growth.)
But the one challenge with brand new subdivisions is that you lose some of that country charm around you. This vast ranch property is so in-touch with the land as it once was, that it still has an Ag Exemption. That means it could serve as the perfect ranch home for anyone who has a love for the land.
“This 19-acre luxury oasis is the perfect private space to bring a family together,” Tibbetts says.
Let’s take a look at some of the highlights.
Enter the grand wrought-iron gate and up the winding driveway, past a quaint pond in front of the property, you’ll be in awe as you first experience the incredible exterior. The brick and stone home sits prominently against a peaceful pastoral landscape. It features spired architecture and a huge four-plus car garage.
Upon entering the home, you’ll find a dynamic multilevel layout with beautiful hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and overwhelming space. An exquisite formal dining room with impressive chandelier flanks the right side and a versatile sitting area is on the right. We found in an old listing that the stained glass windows featuring a single rose are imported from a church in England.
The kitchen features professional stainless steel appliances including a built-in SubZero refrigerator, a six-burner gas cooktop and grill, and a double oven, perfect for any chef. A huge center island and counter with breakfast bar make entertaining easy and exceptional. Also, it’s located conveniently beside two other dining areas with tons of natural light.
An office sits just off the kitchen and dining area looks out on an incredible view of the enclosed patio area and sparking pool. Wood plank ceilings complete the look.
The two-story living room has Juliet balconies and a two-story stone fireplace. Tons of natural light fill this space and complements the scenic views outside.
The oversized primary suite features tray ceilings, patio access, and a large bathroom retreat with separate vanities, a walk-in shower, and a step-up jetted tub with a picture window looking out onto the acreage.
The primary suite has a private living space with a wood-burning fireplace and windows in the round.
Another entertainment space upstairs makes this home perfect for an abundance of guests. Make it a living room that’s already wired for sound or make it a game room for the kiddos.
Each bedroom throughout the house has a bathroom of its own and plenty of room to stretch out and make yourself at home. Your guests will love visiting.
Outside, there’s a saltwater diving pool and full outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbecue grill, pizza oven, and fire pit that takes entertainment to another level.
If all this wasn’t enough, this property features a guest barndominium that’s a whopping 2,000 square feet with full kitchen, two bedrooms, two full baths, and two living spaces. The guest house also has a 40×50 barn that could be converted to barn use for animals.
The home is zoned for highly-rated Celina ISD schools.
Whether this 19-acre gated property is for yourself, an incredible investment opportunity, or a little bit of both, there is so much to love with this massive estate.
