896 MT RIANTE Road

Perched atop Mt. Riante with panoramic views of Lake Hamilton and the Ouachita Mountains, this extraordinary 7,300 sq ft estate is one of the most remarkable properties to come to market in Hot Springs. Three beautifully appointed levels -- each with its own private deck -- deliver a lifestyle that's equal parts mountain retreat and investment powerhouse. The craftsmanship announces itself on arrival: a soaring timber-frame entry portico, hand-laid stone chimney, and an arched wood door opening into a dramatic vaulted foyer with a floor-to-ceiling native stone accent wall. The open-concept main level flows from a chef's kitchen with bold teal cabinetry, marble countertops, stainless appliances, and designer lighting into a living room anchored by a massive stone fireplace, and on into a stunning 12-person dining room wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows framing Lake Hamilton. The top floor has a private, cozy sitting area with fireplace. Also the primary suite, which offers panoramic windows, French doors to the covered deck, and a spa en suite with a jetted soaking tub overlooking Lake Hamilton, dual granite vanity, and a marble walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms with their own tasteful themes, and an oversized bathroom/laundry. The bottom floor: bunk room, a game room with pool table, and a massive lower-level great room give every guest their own world. Walk out patio has the soothing hot tub to relax and take in the views. Three decks, a covered hot tub, and that view.
