This spacious residence is designed to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living, featuring stunning vistas and a peaceful retreat right upon entry. The two-story foyer with bridal staircase leads to a step-down living room with gorgeous limestone surround fireplace and endless wooded views with the pond just beyond.
