If you're seeking a private oasis with sweeping views, this exceptional property is the perfect retreat. Set on over 38 acres-28 of which are preserved-you'll enjoy lasting protection from future development and unparalleled tranquility. This expansive ranch-style home features a dozen rooms across two distinct wings, making it ideal for multi-generational living. Throughout the home, refinished oak floors add warmth and character. The library wing offers a stunning, oversized room with a wood-burning fireplace, complemented by two additional rooms and a full bath-perfect for a private suite, office, or guest quarters. From there, the home flows into a custom kitchen, dining area, and inviting living room with a wood stove. A standout feature is the heated, enclosed sunroom, filled with natural light and designed to showcase the breathtaking western views (an additional 435 square feet). The large mud room, with its own entrance, offers potential for customization. This wing also includes five additional rooms and three full bathrooms. New Andersen windows have been installed in the sunroom and many of the bedrooms, enhancing both efficiency and comfort. A covered walkway connects the home to the first of three substantial outbuildings. These versatile structures offer incredible space and opportunity-one even includes a one-bedroom apartment on the second floor. Adding to the property's history and charm, it was once part of the old Allen farm, and formerly featured a pool and tennis court.
