About this home

Private retreat on over 4.5 acres with exceptional space, a spacious wrap-around front porch, and incredible flexibility for hobbyists, horse lovers, or car enthusiasts. This impressive 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home combines comfortable everyday living with acreage and amenities rarely found in one property. Fresh paint and recent upgrades make this home truly stand out, including a new A/C (2024), new sump pumps (2022), and a whole-house generator for added security. The property also offers two separate 250-AMP electrical services, providing power for workshops, equipment, or equestrian needs. Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors, 9' ceilings, and a warm, inviting layout filled with natural gathering spaces. Both the living room and family room feature charming wood-burning fireplaces, adding an unmistakable sense of comfort throughout the main level. The kitchen impresses with granite countertops, a chic tile backsplash, and quality stainless steel appliances, all centered around a generous island perfect for meal prep, casual dining, or gathering with friends and family. This inviting space opens directly to the spacious family room, creating a natural, seamless flow ideal for everyday living and effortless entertaining. A private first-floor bedroom with its own exterior entrance offers exceptional versatility, a great in-law arrangement, perfect for remote work, or a quiet creative space. Also on the main level, the breezeway leads to a heated/cooled 3-bay garage with tall doors, high ceilings, and a dedicated mechanics room, ideal for collectors or those needing oversized vehicle space. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the additional outbuilding, with ample acreage for riding and exploring. Back inside, a laundry room and half bath complete the main level. Upstairs, the second floor features a luxurious primary suite with an updated bath and a private balcony overlooking tranquil natural views. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a second full bath complete this level. Continue to the third-floor hidden bonus room-an inviting space with a window, ideal for a playroom, craft room, office, or cozy retreat. The finished basement expands your options with a large rec room accented by a third fireplace, an exercise room, and a game area-offering multiple spaces to unwind or entertain. All of this is set in a convenient location close to major transportation, shopping, and an extensive trail system for riding, running, hiking, and biking.
