Step into timeless elegance with this totally custom, full-brick Victorian home nestled on approximately 5 wooded, landscaped acres. Built in 1996 and offering over 3,000 square feet of living space, this stunning 4-bedroom, 2 full and 2 half-bath residence showcases hardwood floors throughout, two full masonry fireplaces (in the family room and finished basement), and an island kitchen perfect for entertaining. The first-floor primary suite offers a spacious retreat with a soaking tub and separate shower. Enjoy peace of mind with recent updates including a new roof (2022) and A/C (2023). Outdoor living is a dream with an expansive front porch, a paver patio out back, and a charming she-shed for hobbies or relaxation. The property also includes two garages-an attached 2-car garage and a detached garage (no electric). This all-custom home delivers craftsmanship, quality, and privacy-a rare gem that offers nothing but the best in every way. This lovely home also has a generator and will be sold "as-is".
