About this home

This exquisite shingle-style home, built in 2004 & updated in 2018, offers elegant country living on a secluded 6.5-acre lot with forest views. The residence showcases quality craftsmanship, detailed built-in cabinetry, and oversized windows that fill the space with natural light. At its heart is a gorgeous gourmet kitchen featuring two large islands with walnut and quartzite countertops, a large pantry, a wrap-around bar and seamless flow into the family & sunroom. The grand entry foyer opens to a formal dining room and a front-to-back living room, which also functions as a media room. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite boasts a cathedral ceiling, a window seat, double closets, and an ensuite bath, while three additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a laundry room complete the second floor. The top level offers a private retreat with a large bedroom, a sleeping window seat, and a luxurious bathroom. The large level fenced backyard features a bluestone patio with a firepit and hot tub.
