RARE WALDEN OPPORTUNITY! - One of a Kind, Organic Woodland Retreat!
Set within 1.52 sprawling acres of hardwood forest, this architecturally distinctive deck house is designed to participate with nature, creating a home where light, landscape, and structure exist in quiet harmony.
The land gently slopes to a flowing stream with a waterfall, forming a serene, Walden-like setting of wildflowers, birds, and abundant wildlife.
Spanning 2,618 square feet, the home embraces its surroundings with natural materials, expansive glass, and thoughtfully oriented spaces that invite the outdoors in.
At the heart of the home is a dramatic two-story great room with tile flooring and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the forest's changing seasons. Winter sunlight fills the space while the surrounding hardwood canopy provides welcome shade in summer, creating a naturally comfortable environment year-round.
Throughout the home, decks and balconies extend the living spaces outward, offering ever-changing views of woods and wildlife and reinforcing the connection between the house and its landscape.
Interior features include:
• Library with built-in shelving and storage
• Wood-stove fireplace in the great room
• Loft overlooking the great room
• Three sliding glass doors opening to outdoor living spaces
• Very private primary suite
• Three walk-in closets
• Pantry and utility room off the kitchen
• Track and recessed lighting
• Smooth ceilings in the library, foyer, and primary suite
Additional features include:
• Cedar siding exterior
• Whole-house attic fan
• Security system
• Two storage sheds (attached and freestanding)
• Paved driveway on a quiet cul-de-sac
• All-electric systems
The surrounding neighborhood features rustic walking trails winding through the woods, complementing the home's peaceful woodland setting.
A rare opportunity to live in a home that blends architecture and landscape into a single, harmonious experience. *Some photos have been AI staged*
