This private treehouse sanctuary is nestled on 3+ wooded acres. This lovely expanded 4BR, 3BA Ranch/Cape blends total privacy with sophisticated living. Perched on a dramatic hillside, this property trades yard maintenance for a peaceful forest canopy and can be yours just in time to watch the leaves change. The main level is built for entertaining, featuring a large living and dining area with a wet bar. The updated gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a pot filler, and lovely center island which flows seamlessly into a cozy family room. From there, step out onto a massive 55-foot deck your private overlook perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing in nature. The desirable first-floor primary suite is a true retreat, offering a spacious dressing room, a newer spa-like bath, and direct deck access. A second bedroom, updated full bath, dedicated home office, and laundry room complete the main level. Upstairs, discover two more spacious bedrooms, another newer full bath, and an expansive walk-in attic for incredible storage. Need more space? The finished basement recreation area is ideal for a second home office, gym, or playroom. Enjoy total peace of mind with big-ticket structural updates already done: a new roof (2020) and a new septic system (2021). Live in your own secluded woodland paradise while enjoying Basking Ridge's top-tier schools, vibrant community, and easy commuting routes.
