About This Home

FURNISHED EXECUTIVE COTTAGE and privacy on 1.5 Acres. Discover the perfect blend of rustic charm and craftsmanship in this fully furnished creekside cottage, set on 1.5 private and wooded acres. Over 30 years of thoughtful makeovers have created a one-of-a-kind home, rich in character. Step inside to find a creative mix of materials and textures - from repurposed millwork and custom-cut trim to sleek concrete, vinyl, and carpet flooring. The vaulted multi-pane front window area is the perfect location for the fruit producing 11-foot citrus tree. In-home movable stereo system. Multiple hand-cut stained glass tables. The freestanding, lighted dry-bar rolls easily to create cozy gathering spots anywhere in the home. The kitchen features generous 30-inch counter depth and a hand-cut ceramic tile backsplash. The primary bedroom showcases knotty pine walls, wood ceiling, with black-hinged details, while the spa-inspired bath offers a 4' x 7' shower with soothing indirect red lighting. Most windows have been replaced and the exterior of the windows have a uniquely designed exterior trim. Enjoy the heated four-season room with an art studio nook, knotty pine, custom trim and cedar siding accents. Transform the studio nook into your own unique space. There is a laundry/utility room. Outside, mowed trails wind through the property, a wooded tree-lined canopy lane leads to the home and there is a trickling backyard creek. The back of the home features low-maintenance vinyl siding, a large cement patio, a grill patio with a freestanding grill, and plenty of space for outdoor furniture and entertaining. Additional features include: Steel roof; Tandem 2-car garage with workshop; Garden shed stocked with yard tools and riding mower; exterior lighting and motion sensors. A true artisan's retreat, this home offers privacy, beauty, and endless inspiration - all "as is" and it's ready for its next chapter. Furnace 2022; water heater 12/2024; dishwasher 7/2025; AC 2004.
