It’s your turn to get a chance to live on the extremely peaceful, Colonial Downs subdivision. Featuring country living on 6 scenic acres with a fenced pasture, a private stocked pond and a fully equipped barn for all kinds of livestock. When walking in the front door, a foyer opens to a library and a formal dining room. The living room has a cathedral ceiling, and a stone-front gas-log fireplace. The kitchen has plenty of cabinetry space, tile backsplash and a 5-foot island. It flows into a fireside sitting area and an informal dining space, where French doors open to the backyard deck. The main-floor primary suite has its own fireplace, and French doors lead to a spa-inspired bath. The bath has double vanities, a jetted tub, a walk-in shower and a grand walk-in closet, that leads to the laundry room for added convenience! The laundry room has set up for double washer and dryer plus soaking sink, and cabinets. Upstairs are three bedrooms and two baths, including a private guest suite with its own bath, a walk-in closet and a sitting area. The partially finished lower level offers a family room and generous storage, and there's an attached three-car garage. The back yard leaves nothing to be desired as it comes ready to enjoy and entertain with a San Juan Daytona saltwater pool, and an 8 person hot tub! Half of the barn is ready for horses or livestock with stalls and a hay loft. The other half of the barn is a perfect office space and has vinyl flooring, and an open staircase to a loft. The home also comes with peace of mind knowing the roof and gutters were recently replaced in 2025, HVAC and Airconditioning in 2021, and a tankless water heater installed in 2020. This home includes many more updates, so call your realtor today and schedule a showing! (And ask to see the full updates list!!)
