Gorgeous heated hardwood floors run throughout, leading you into a beautifully updated chef’s kitchen featuring new cabinetry, granite countertops, and brand-new appliances—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The main floor private primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with an updated bath, while additional bedrooms provide ample space for family and guests. A stunning loft overlooks the living space and showcases breathtaking views of the surrounding woods.

Comfort is thoughtfully designed year-round with multiple heating sources including in-floor heat, a cozy wood stove in the living room, forced air heat, and central air conditioning. Additional features like a heated garage, leaf guard gutters, and city water service make day-to-day living as practical as it is enjoyable. Outdoors, the property continues to impress with a 30x40 pole building complete with a concrete floor, electricity and additional loft storage. The dedicated man cave/she shed with wood stove adds additional room to roam.
