About This Home

As of December 2019

It's not often a special property like this one comes along. This contemporary style Chalet home is tucked away in a gorgeous and secluded 3.5 acre setting with breathtaking views from every window and boasts 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and 3585 sq ft including the walk-out above grade lower level. The main house was built in 1976, but multiple additions have been added within the past 20 years, like the Great Room with a 2-car garage underneath. This room boasts a vaulted ceiling with wood beams providing an open and airy feel with tons of windows for natural light and views of all that nature has to offer. There are sliders out to a tranquil patio and nice sized back yard for playing with a lovely wooded backdrop. Back inside, the Great Room opens to a very large kitchen with more than enough cabinets, a huge center island perfect for entertaining and Corian counter tops. Off the kitchen is a cozy den, a full bath and the Dining Room with panoramic views that are sure to mesmerize your dinner guests due to the multiple sliders out to your wrap around deck that overlooks extensive landscaping, a fishpond and the in-ground pool! This room offers more wood beams and a floor to ceiling stone propane fireplace. Down the hall from the den is another addition of the massive Master Suite, again with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and sliders out to a deck with stairs leading to the pool and nature. This flows into an equally impressive Master Bath and a double walk-in closet. Yet another addition off the den is your 2nd bedroom with its own full bath. Upstairs is a 3rd bedroom and a floored attic with easy access to storage. The above grade lower level offers 2 more bedrooms, one with a full bath and the other with a half bath. There is also the family room with sliders out to a covered deck and the pool and entertainment area, where your family will no doubt be spending most of their time all summer long. There is a new whole house generator, new well pump and ceiling fans in nearly every room. If you've been searching for that private rural oasis, you've just found it!
