Homes of this size and character, with this combination of amenities and acreage, are rarely offered for sale. Tucked away behind a wooded perimeter, this impressive all-brick estate offers more than 6,500 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, 6 fireplaces, 6 garages, extensive outdoor living areas, and room to enjoy the property in countless ways. The heart of the home is its inviting living spaces, beginning with a beautiful custom kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A large formal dining room provides an elegant setting for holiday dinners and special gatherings, while multiple spacious family rooms offer plenty of room to relax and spend time together. Throughout these spaces, the warmth of multiple fireplaces creates a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Inside, the scale of the home is immediately apparent. The massive primary suite provides a true private retreat, complete with its own private deck and an abundance of space.

Four attached garages are complemented by a workshop, while a large detached two-car garage/shed provides even more storage and workspace.

Continue the tradition of raising deer or reimagine the space for horses or other livestock. A private walking and ATV trail winds through the woods, offering an amenity that is rare to find right outside your door. The wooded acreage is also home to abundant natural deer and wildlife, making this a particularly appealing property for hunting and outdoor enthusiasts. Perhaps the greatest feature of Deer Field Estate is the privacy. The property is surrounded by woods, creating a secluded setting that feels like your own private retreat out in the country while only being a short 10 minute drive to town.
