OPEN HOUSE Saturday 05/23 from 12pm-3pm
A custom-built, multi-generational home tucked into a country hillside — your own private retreat in the woods.
Drive up the fern-lined lane to a park-like setting with established perennial gardens, mature forest, blooming rhododendron, and wildlife around every tree.
Gather for breakfast in the sun-filled kitchen — breakfast bar, large windows, and sweeping views of the farmland in the valley below.
Relax on the expansive screened porch — listen for the drum of the red-headed woodpeckers, the chatter of squirrels, the distant hoot of a great horned owl.
Summer nights belong in the picnic spot in the woods, with its grill, porch swing and the fireflies coming out at dusk. In winter, settle in by the woodstove in the living room, and watch the snow fall quietly on the hilltop.
The enormous main-level primary suite features its own woodstove, vaulted ceiling, and sunny bath — a true sanctuary. Upstairs: three bedrooms and a full bath. Downstairs: a spacious family room.
AND — a fully self-contained studio apartment with its own private entrance. Full kitchen, full bath, and room for both living and sleeping. Perfect as a rental, in-law suite, or au pair space.
Outside: a shed, chicken coop & run, tool room, storage room, zip line and swing in the woods — and attic storage throughout.
Some homes you inhabit. In this one you enjoy the life you live.
