‘Resort calibre’ living awaits in $2.5 million Shiloh mansion. Take a look
If you’ve always wanted to live in a mansion without leaving the metro-east, now might be your chance.
A nearly 12,000-square-foot waterfront estate in Shiloh has hit the market for $2.5 million, pitching itself as “resort-caliber living” inside the gated Waterford Place subdivision. The traditional-style home, built in 2001 at 2102 Clairmont Drive, sits on 4.5 acres and is listed with seven bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. It is so large that the owner, who bought the home in 2017, said she recalls a time when more than 20 people stayed there.
The listing highlights a brick-and-stone exterior; soaring, vaulted interior spaces; rich millwork; and imported Italian tile, along with four fireplaces and an elevator. In every upstairs bedroom, cushioned platforms sit along the windows, and each room has its own bathroom. Other custom touches include built-in shelving, ornate sinks and fixtures, and four distinct fireplaces throughout the home.
Amenities go well beyond what most homes offer. Many bathrooms and other rooms have heated floors, and natural light is found virtually everywhere. Downstairs, an open-floor-plan basement designed for entertaining greets visitors.
The lower level includes a home theater, a steam sauna, a dry sauna and a room currently used as a home gym. A utilities room in the back of the basement resembles a professionally maintained commercial facility, with multi-zoned HVAC units and sump pumps, engineered plumbing stacks, and neatly organized climate and lighting controls.
An audio-visual networking cabinet serving the full-sized home theater looks more state-of-the-art than those found in many cinemas.
The home has an attached three-car garage, a circular driveway and an electric-vehicle charging station. The concrete is climate-controlled, designed to stay cool in summer and warm in winter.
A central courtyard serves as a driveway and connects to a two-bedroom, 3.5-bath guest house that is larger than many standard homes. The structure pairs an Italian-inspired exterior with a Far Eastern-style interior.
Inside, rooms are divided by Japanese Edo period-inspired sliding wooden doors. The floors cover what was once a basketball court; the home was built by a professional basketball player. A mechanical lift near the attached one-car garage provides accessibility.
The secondary structure can also be separated from the front and rear, allowing the front half to serve as a guest house and the rear half as a pool house, giving guests separate spaces. If the full-sized, concrete in-ground pool feels too synthetic, a private dock across the roughly 4-acre yard provides access to a lake for fishing, boating or swimming.

The gated community in which the house is located is silent, allowing for moments of peace and quiet reflection at the pool or lake.
The home is listed by Tara Riggs of RE/MAX Alliance. The HOA fee is listed at $4,200 annually, and the annual property tax amount is listed at $46,518. The home went on the market May 7.
