About This Home
As of July 2024A STUNNING WOODED RETREAT! This custom-built, 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home sits on a wooded 0.69-acre beautifully landscaped lot, complete with expansive back patio, grilling area, shed and fire pit. The circle driveway leads to the two-car garage and inviting front porch. Enter the front door into a large foyer, overlooking the large great room, with vaulted tongue & groove ceiling, timber beams, clerestory windows, and wood-burning fireplace surrounded by custom cabinetry. A spacious dining area adjoins the beautiful kitchen, with generous cabinetry, large island with gas cooktop, a snack bar, and all appliances. Step down to the multi-purpose room (currently used as an office) with large windows and French doors that access the patio. A powder room, large closet/pantry, and laundry room complete the first floor. Take the stairs to the finished basement, which is an amazing entertainment and leisure area, including a game table nook, built-in wet bar, TV area, full bathroom, and more. The lovely staircase in the foyer leads to the three bedrooms and two baths upstairs. The spacious primary bedroom provides natural light with its beautiful windows, semi-vaulted ceiling, and skylights. Enjoy the sanctuary of the fully appointed ensuite bath (including a large window above the whirlpool tub and separate shower/toilet room). Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second level. This gorgeous home is indeed a rustic retreat, offering the best of both worlds. The wooded setting and spacious lot make this a one-of-a-kind property. You will appreciate all the custom touches, as well as the massive amount of storage in this home. If your dream is a wooded retreat in the heart of town, you have found it here.
