About this home
Where rustic charm meets contemporary sophistication, this exceptional country estate offers comfort, character, and versatility amid rolling countryside and picturesque pond views. Enjoy spectacular sunsets from the swing on the expansive covered front porch. Inside the 4-bedroom, 4-bath main residence, exposed beams and rustic log accents blend beautifully with contemporary finishes and open-concept living. The inviting living room with fireplace flows into a chef's kitchen featuring a 6-burner range, California-style island, granite countertops, and abundant cabinetry. The main-level primary suite boasts a renovated private bath, with an additional guest bath nearby. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and two updated full baths. Outdoor living shines with a large rear deck overlooking a charming courtyard and koi pond, plus a screened teahouse with countryside views. A separate 2-bedroom cabin offers incredible flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or potential rental income, complete with hardwood floors, full kitchen, fireplace, private laundry, and full-length covered porch. Exceptional outbuildings include a charming, beautifully lit dairy barn with a basement formerly used for a printing business, and an impressive 2,000-square-foot detached 2-car garage/workshop with concrete floor and abundant workspace. An old tobacco barn, firepit, and raised garden beds add to the property's appeal. Whether you envision a private country retreat, multigenerational estate, hobby farm, or inspiring live/work setting, this extraordinary property offers endless possibilities. More than a home—a lifestyle!
2 houses, 2 barns, and a 2000 sq shop with 200 amp service! This piece of paradise will have you in awe of its stunning sunrises and sunsets! Sit by the stocked pond at sunset or in the vaulted screen room by the goldfish pond at sunrise. Feed the peacock by hand and gather fresh eggs every day from your chickens. The main log house is 4 br 4 ba with a new gourmet kitchen, metal roof, two new HVAC units, huge bedrooms, and other beautiful updates throughout. A smaller 2 br 1 1/2 bath house with its own screened porch has endless possibilities either for family, friends, or income. The workshop and well-kept two story barn also have endless potential. Another 200 year old peg barn is equipped with 50 amp service and water for an RV, and nearby is a raised garden bed at the high point of the property. The backyard has a divided fence where you will find apple trees. What's your dream? This property is waiting for you to make it happen. More than a property, it is a lifestyle.
