Welcome to this extraordinary 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom retreat nestled on a breathtaking, nature-surrounded 25-acre lot. Offering a rare blend of luxury, privacy, and resort-style living, this exceptional property features a private pond, tranquil forest views, and a sparkling in-ground pool-creating the ultimate escape just minutes from town conveniences. A dramatic two-story wood-beamed ceiling with skylights fills the home with natural light, seamlessly blending indoor elegance with the beauty of the outdoors. To the left of the foyer, a spectacular great room unites the living and family rooms. Walls of windows frame stunning pond views, while two fireplaces-one in the family room and a striking multi-sided fireplace shared between the living and dining areas-add warmth and architectural distinction. The dining area opens directly to an expansive deck, ideal for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is a true showpiece, highlighted by a luxurious oversized marble waterfall island with breakfast bar seating, a spacious pantry closet, and abundant cabinetry. Soaring wood-beamed ceilings and skylights enhance the bright, modern aesthetic, while direct access to the screened porch makes al fresco dining and seasonal relaxation a delight. A conveniently located first-floor laundry closet adds everyday ease. Designed with entertaining and poolside living in mind, a full bath on the main level offers direct access to the in-ground pool-perfect for guests and post-swim convenience. Down the hallway, two generously sized bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, each with access to the pool area for a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Upstairs, a stunning loft welcomes you with skylights, a private balcony, and a fireplace-an inviting space that captures panoramic nature views. The loft leads to the primary suite, featuring a spa-inspired ensuite with a soaking tub, separate shower, and expansive windows overlooking peaceful scenery. A second bedroom completes the upper level, which can easily function as an expansive private primary retreat if desired. The fully finished basement further expands the living space with a large recreation room, fifth bedroom, full bath, and walk-up access to the garage-offering privacy and flexibility for guests or extended family. This remarkable home delivers the perfect balance of refined luxury and natural beauty-an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a private retreat, vacation-style living, and a peaceful escape from the city.
