undreamt-of
Never before imagined
Undreamt-of describes something so extraordinary or unexpected that no one could have imagined it beforehand.
The term typically modifies positive outcomes—undreamt-of wealth, undreamt-of opportunities—though it can apply to any situation that exceeds what anyone thought possible.
It emphasizes not just surprise but the complete absence of prior conception: the thing wasn't merely unlikely, it was beyond the realm of imagination entirely.
