Read the full listing description
Stunning custom-built home in an extraordinary and private setting on 9+ acres including a pollinator field and pond. A tree-lined, sweeping gravel drive leads to this perfectly situated home featuring light-filled rooms and blonde, white oak floors throughout. The beautifully designed kitchen includes pristine white cabinetry, honed black granite counters, and a dining area perfectly situated in front of three sets of sliding doors to the bluestone terrace. The family room features a modern wood-burning stove and French doors to the sunroom with walls of windows overlooking the flowering field. A room at the front of the house with French doors offers a more private living space that can serve as a home office, den, or formal dining room. Upstairs is the perfectly sized primary bedroom with walk-in closet and en-suite bath with a soaking tub. Three more bedrooms and a full hall bath share this level. A large unfinished space accessed through one of the bedrooms offers storage or potential for more finished space - possibly a home gym or studio. The nature-filled and private property offers over 9 acres with walking trails through and around the gorgeous flowering field leading to the pond. Plenty of space for a pool or barn if desired, with the property offering easy access to bridle trails. Offering the best of both worlds with privacy and also a convenient location close to town, this immaculate and stunningly designed property is a rare opportunity!
