Tradition, charm, grace... elements embraced at Twin Falls Plantation, in the heart of Northwest Florida. If you've ever dreamt of a luxurious private estate amid an Old South setting, Twin Falls Plantation is your dream transformed into reality. The Antebellum style home, exudes Southern Charm with a modern flare is located in Walton County, only 25 minutes north of the sugar-white sand beaches. Twin Falls Plantation encompasses more than 650 secluded acres of manicured uplands, wooded bayous and spring-fed lakes. Twin Falls Plantation is named for two waterfalls found along Bruce Creek, which meanders through the property, a tributary of the Choctawhatchee River. The plantation home, built in 2004, includes 21 Tuscan columns with 14 ft. ceilings, 8 ft. doors and features two wings. The exterior walls are poly-steel framing, which is energy efficient insulating concrete forms, covered with brick. This, coupled with steel I-beams that tie the foundation to the roof, makes the home a fortress against storms. If the electricity ever goes out, your Generac standby generator goes on automatically, to power the entire home, storm-resistant, double-insulated windows add to the stability and energy efficiency. The mansion also features elaborate crown molding and trim throughout as well as custom Travertine tile, marble and durable Mirbeau hardwood floors. One wing houses the main kitchen, designed for a master chef, as well as a family room, laundry room, a gym and garage. The bedrooms can be reached by private elevator or by traversing the exquisitely beautiful curved staircase. Each bedroom contains its own private bath. A series of double doors leads to colonnaded galleries at the rear of the first and second floors, which overlook the two lakes and guest cabin. The second wing contains a heated lap pool, summer kitchen and full bath. Natural gas serves all three fireplaces, the grill and stove in the main house, as well as the summer kitchen by the pool and the heated pool itself. Twin Falls Plantation is gracious southern living, a breathtaking display of style and charm. The guest cabin is a sportsman's paradise. Though it has a rustic facade, you'll want for nothing inside. It comes complete with all the comforts of home. It contains over 5,000 sq, ft. of tongue and groove poplar wood, all taken right from the property and milled locally. With four captain's beds in the loft, two sets of bunk-beds and a California king in the master bedroom, the cabin comfortably sleeps 11. The cabin overlooks a boathouse poised on the shore of one of two stream-fed lakes that are stocked with bass, bream, shell cracker and blue gill. Trex decking leads to an outdoor grill pavilion, perfect for fish fries or barbecues. Twin Falls Plantation was the recipient of the Florida Forest Stewardship Award in 1995 for enhancement of wildlife and the environment. Whether you are a nature-lover or an avid sportsman, Twin Falls Plantation is home to wildlife and flora in its natural setting, featuring wild turkeys, ducks, quail, doves and white tail deer. Its current dove hunting field could be converted into a private airstrip if it meets local, state and federal qualifications. Airstrip study has not been done. Formerly a working plantation, growing cotton, soybeans and peanuts, Twin Falls Plantation is now an active pine plantation and has a variety of pine species in various stages of growth. Over 300 Oak trees have been strategically planted throughout the property. The Antebellum home is 4996 sq ft with 3 bedrooms. The guest lake home is 1740 sq ft with 3 bedrooms.
