First-time offering, nestled in the heart of the coveted Sherwood Forest, lovingly named “Fern Hill” by the family who built it. From the moment you arrive, you’ll understand why, every window frames a postcard-worthy vista of swaying ferns and mature hardwoods, creating the magical sensation of living in a private treehouse sanctuary. Spanning just over 3,000 square feet, the open-flow design seamlessly merges modern luxury with timeless warmth. The gourmet kitchen flows into sunlit living spaces adorned with premium finishes and electric fireplace insert. Currently configured with two bedrooms plus a dedicated office and den, the layout lends itself beautifully to reimagining as a sprawling primary wing. This home has slept eight comfortably when the extended family visited. Step outside to the rear deck and into the screened porch, where al fresco dining feels suspended among the treetops. With an exterior entrance to the basement level, this space would make an amazing in-law suite.
