About This Home
Warm and inviting, this Timber-peg post-and-beam style home combines timeless craftsmanship with high-end updates, all set on a beautifully landscaped .69-acre lot with a serene wooded backdrop just minutes from Lake Galena and the Owners’ Club. Step inside through the custom front door to a cozy living room featuring a striking stone-surround wood-burning fireplace, exposed beams, abundant windows, and oak flooring that flows throughout the main level. The living room opens to a bright sunroom with a stone-surround gas fireplace and slate flooring, or to an expansive composite deck with multiple seating areas and stairs to the backyard, perfect for entertaining. The spacious dining area connects to a stunning kitchen boasting stainless steel appliances, ornate custom cabinetry with panel inserts, and gleaming granite countertops. The main level is also home to the primary bedroom and the full bath with a carved vanity and tile flooring. Upstairs, an elegantly carved staircase leads to a lofted overlook with skylights, two guest bedrooms with vaulted ceilings highlighting the post-and-beam design, and a full bath with dramatic skylight. The walk-out lower level offers a large family room with wood floors, a recreation/sitting area, a guest bedroom with bead board accents, a stylish full bath, laundry room, and access to a second spacious deck overlooking the peaceful yard. Additional features include an asphalt driveway with stamped paver edging, paver walkway, covered front entry, central vacuum, built-in storage shed under the sunroom, composite front porch, and detailed trim work throughout. Some furnishings will be left behind and will be transferred on a separate bill of sale.
