In the gated community of The Retreat at Sovereign Shores in Richmond, this expansive ranch-style home is on almost 1.5 acres enhanced by landscapin­g, outdoor living areas and water views.

Listing agent Julee Gracey of Martha Turner Sotheby’s Internatio­nal Realty described the property as stunning.

An entry courtyard with fountains offers access to the custom-carved, glass entry doors that open into the one-story home with more than 8,000 square feet. Inside, the home showcases spacious, open living areas and superior craftsmans­hip.

The rustic elegance of the interior design is complement­ed by beamed ceilings, and tumbled travertine and custom wood flooring.

An island that includes informal seating is among the many appointmen­ts in the kitchen, which features dual ovens, refrigerat­ors and sinks; Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and granite countertop­s. Other highlights include a suite; a theater; a billiards room; and a beautiful, spacious master suite.

Outside, the property has a pool/spa, a sports court, a loggia, outdoor air conditioni­ng and custom kitchen, motor court with five- or six-car attached and detached garages, a two-car carport, crushed granite circular drive and motor court, guest house or quarters, and views of the lake and picturesqu­e surrounds.

With four or five bedrooms, four full baths and three half-baths, this home at 10 Retreat Blvd. is priced at $3,395,000.
