About This Home

This beautiful and thoughtfully built 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on 8.21 picturesque acres overlooks a spring fed pond. It offers a rare blend of privacy, functionality, and natural beauty. A paved driveway leads to an oversized two-car detached garage with a bonus storage room.Relax on its wraparound porch and expansive back deck!

The property is rich with outdoor features, including a fire pit, a newly constructed walking bridge across the pond to additional acreage, and a large, flat yard framed by mature trees and planting beds with rich soil. Wildlife is abundant—enjoy frequent sightings of deer, turkey, geese, ducks, turtles, otters, and blue heron—creating a peaceful, nature-filled setting.

Inside, the home showcases solid craftsmanship inclusive of vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace with custom built-in cabinetry, and an abundance of windows brings in the natural light with stunning views. Hardwood floors run throughout the open floor plan.

The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a large granite island, gas range, breakfast bar, and eat-in area, all flowing seamlessly into the main living space. A large dining room adds to the home’s versatility, while the conveniently located utility/laundry room sits between the kitchen and breezeway entry. The main-level primary suite offers direct access to the deck, a generous walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath with dual sinks, tile flooring, a jetted tub, and a spacious shower.

Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a balcony overlooking the great room complete the layout.

Starlink and a security system equipment are included , a brand-new Rinnai gas hot water heater, plus the septic system has recently been inspected and pumped in 2026.
