About This Home

As of December 2024

Not just a home but a lifestyle--sip your morning coffee overlooking the stunning 8-acre waterfront property, fish for sunnies and bass or kayak and swim on your own 4-acre pond, hone your craft in the heated studio with 11 foot ceilings, and harvest year-round vegetables in the greenhouse. Step inside the meticulously maintained 5BR/4.5BA main home and you will find exposed post and beam architecture, an open floor plan, with wide plank floors, and three levels of living! Main level features water views from all rooms, including a chef's kitchen with dining area, family room with built-ins, and an office/5th bedroom and full bath, all centered around a gorgeous fireplace! The library lined with bookcases, as well as two bedrooms, and the spectacular primary suite which includes a second fireplace, sitting area, and large walk-in closet, can all be found on the second level. A media room, home gym, and oversized guest suite (or alternative primary suite) are on the third floor. The professionally landscaped and private property is conveniently located to excellent schools, commuting locations, and shopping/dining, yet feels a world away, being adjacent to hundreds of acres of open space and hiking trails. The perfect spot for year-round or weekend living! Don't miss this one-of-a-kind home!
