A porticoed front entrance with custom glass doors leads to a spacious living room, a dining room with a built-in buffet, and patio doors that access a broad deck overlooking the water. Also on the main floor, the master bedroom suite features a gas fireplace, screened porch, cozy den with built-ins, and capacious walk-in closet. The brilliant master bath includes a fireside whirlpool tub, a large 10-spigot steamshower, and his and her vanities. Fully equipped, the kitchen offers dual refrigerators, dual dishwashers, a stand-alone freezer, and a center island with an ice maker and warming and cooling drawers. An adjacent deck is ideal for grilling. The expansive lower level claims a three-tiered theater with a stage, curtains, and 15 reclining chairs. Among other wonderful spaces are a billiards room with a wet bar and fireplace, a welcoming family room with a fireplace, a half bath, a two-bedroom suite with its own bath, and a screened porch. Above the garage, a separate and serene apartment has a bedroom, a three-quarter bath, and an efficiency kitchen. An indoor swimming pool is paired with a hot tub and takes in incredible lake views through a floor-to-ceiling privacy-glass wall. In-floor radiant heat and an intercom system are integrated throughout the home, which is also served by an elevator.

Two guest houses provide excellent lodging for family and friends. The first, built along the clear lake waters, features four bedrooms and three baths, a handsome kitchen and dining area hand-painted by a local artist, and a living room that connects to a large deck. Two bedrooms on the main level have their own small decks. The loftlike second floor comprises two bedrooms, a bath, and a screened porch. A detached garage has a fully finished second story with climate control, currently used as a game room. Nestled deep in a wooded ­landscape, the second guest house encompasses two large upstairs bedrooms with full baths and roomy closets. On the ground floor, a grand dining room, full kitchen, half bath, four-season porch, and living room with a woodburning fireplace ensure perfect comfort. A third bedroom downstairs links to a quiet patio. The five-bedroom, three-bath caretaker’s bungalow is yet another enchanting abode.

For those seeking splendor amid the trees, Brentwood is steeped in natural beauty and awash in whimsical delights. A 1950s-style malt shop, a miniature school playhouse complete with its own yard, and a frog-pond fountain lit for nighttime strolls are among the many thoughtful details that have been woven into the property. A walking path winds through shady woods, and decorative retaining walls line the steps to the enticing beachfront and sparkling lake. Two graceful gazebos lend a romantic touch, while the lighted tennis court is perfect for evening matches. An extensive irrigation system ensures that the many plantings will always look their best. At the lake’s edge, the huge, anchored floating dock is highlighted by five boat slips and several lifts. Surrounded by sylvan countryside and equipped with unmatched amenities, this is a jewel to treasure.
