Lined with mature trees and backing to a peaceful stream, this stunning home offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and everyday livability across 7 beautiful private acres. The setting feels like a private retreat, yet it’s still conveniently located for commuting with easy access to major routes. From the moment you arrive, the home makes an impression with its stately presence, two front entrances, and oversized three-car garage with storage above. Inside, you’ll find timeless details throughout, including wainscoting, crown molding, custom built-ins, and detailed woodwork that add warmth and character without feeling overdone. The main level is designed to make daily life easy while still feeling special enough for entertaining. The formal living and dining rooms are perfect for gatherings, while the enormous family room creates a comfortable place to relax, featuring both a fireplace and a pellet stove. The gourmet kitchen is truly the heart of the home, offering a large workspace, quality appliances, and an insta-hot faucet for added convenience. Just off the kitchen, the bright breakfast room and rear deck provide the perfect spots to enjoy morning coffee while taking in views of the trees and surrounding acreage. There’s also a first-floor office that could easily serve as a main-level bedroom if needed, along with a spacious laundry room featuring extra cabinetry, washer, dryer, and a laundry tub. Upstairs, each of the four bedrooms feels like its own private retreat, all featuring en-suite baths and great storage. The primary suite stands out with its huge sitting area, spa-style bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and incredible closet space designed to hold everything with room to spare. The mostly finished basement adds even more living and entertaining space with a large recreation room, entertaining area, and a cozy wood-burning stove with a classic brick hearth and mantle. Walk-out access leads directly to the backyard and pool area, making indoor-outdoor living feel seamless. There’s also an unfinished exercise space, tons of storage, and a rough-in for a future bathroom. Outside is where this property truly shines. The gunite pool creates a resort-like feel during the warmer months, and the hot tub is included as-is. The detached 30x40 barn-style building with concrete flooring offers endless possibilities for a workshop, hobby space, or storage. The partially wooded acreage offers privacy, natural beauty, and ample space for horses, if desired. Additional features include a water filtration system and a Generac generator hook-up already in place and being wired. Located in a small subdivision with no HOA, this property offers the freedom and space that’s becoming harder to find.This is the kind of home where everyday living feels a little more special, where entertaining is easy, and where years of memories are waiting to be made. A truly beautiful property inside and out. ** Senior pets on premises.
