About This Home
As of December 2022Property was under contract at $750,000 and appraised at $762,000 ($62,000 over current list price) in Sept 2022. BACK ON MARKET--BUYER COULD NOT SELL CONTINGENCY PROPERTY. Private retreat has secure, automated gated access with a long paved driveway to the house and barn. 17 acres, with the perfect balance of cleared / pasture land and a lush canopy of woods for hiking, hunting, riding all terrain vehicles or just enjoying nature. 18 x 36 Roman inground pool with extended concrete decking , decks, and accent walls with colorful landscaping all around. Truly ideal for people who want to vacation at home. The porches on both front and back of the house might call you home, but don't stop there. The interior has been METICULOUSLY maintained and renovated with high end, upgraded finishes and convenient tech gadgetry. Primary bedroom on the main floor, with a primary en suite bath that will not disappoint. Primary Bath has an oversized custom shower with frameless glass doors and his and her vanities. The primary closet takes advantage of all the space for clever storage and even has a skylight to aid with natural diffused light. The 12" heart pine tongue-and-groove floors on the main level features an 11" reveal and are in EXCEPTIONAL condition (we ask that you please remove high heels and use the provided shoe covers when viewing the home). The family room is generously sized with a floor-to-ceiling stone wall that showcases a welcoming hearth and fireplace. The family room leads out to a light-filled sunroom overlooking the pool and into the kitchen. The kitchen also features an exposed stone wall and adds rough-sawn wood beam ceiling treatments to the “luxury resort” aesthetic. Gourmet chefs will love the high end Kohler sink and fixtures and the Level 4 granite countertops for food prep and presentation—plus, the new custom cabinetry with in-cabinet lighting is a great way to show off your finest glassware or art. The wine or coffee bar in the area of the in- kitchen dining room is both functional and convenient. Recessed lighting compliments the upgrades and casts just the right light on everything! 2 bedrooms, each with smooth ceilings and dormer style windows (all windows in the house are new Anderson windows that were installed in 2015!) and a spa-like Jack and Jill bath featuring new light fixtures, custom tile shower with glass doors, granite counter tops and new cabinetry upstairs. A second family room, bedroom, bathroom, pool table, and office are in the basement / terrace level, and the French doors lead out to the multiple decks and the pool outdoors. Easily add a kitchenette so extended-stay guests will never have a need to leave their own private lower level. The overall vibe of the home is casual, comfortable, but EXCEEDINGLY well heeled. The former owner had several horses on the property, and the 3 stall barn with tack area and closed fence working pen is still on site. Appointment only, please. Access to the house and property is gated.
