Discover a private country retreat situated on 7 beautiful acres surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping. This spacious Cape Cod-style home has been thoughtfully maintained and updated, offering a rare combination of privacy, space, and modern comfort. A secluded entrance leads to an impressive circular brick-paver driveway with plenty of room for guests, multiple vehicles, an RV, or a boat. The property offers exceptional additional space, including a 3+ car heated garage with a garden room and a finished, climate-controlled upper level featuring custom wood flooring milled from trees on the property. You'll also find a two-stall barn with a loft, electricity, and water, along with a separate loafing shed remaining from the property's original use as a horse farm. Inside, abundant natural light and beautiful millwork create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The impressive cathedral-ceiling family room is highlighted by a stone fireplace and opens directly to a screened porch overlooking the peaceful grounds-the perfect place to relax and enjoy the views. The spacious kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, generous cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and views of the surrounding gardens. The first-floor primary suite provides a private retreat with a large walk-in closet and an updated spa-inspired bathroom. The main level also includes a formal dining room, dedicated home office, and an additional living area featuring the second of the home's three fireplaces. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom. The finished basement provides even more living space with a large recreation room, third fireplace, additional bedroom, half bath, and a work area with a sink. An unfinished portion of the basement offers plenty of extra storage. With 7 acres, multiple outbuildings, expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces, and a peaceful setting, this property offers the feel of country living while remaining convenient to shopping, trails, highways, and everyday amenities. Located within the Millburn School District, this unique property offers space, privacy, and versatility that's difficult to find.
