WELCOME TO YOUR PRIVATE SLICE OF PARADISE IN THIS PEACEFUL SERENE SETTING, AWAY FROM IT ALL YET CLOSE ENOUGH TO EVERYTHING YOU NEED. Owners love for this house shines brightly in this spectacular Arts & Crafts home on almost 5 acres of protected land, the best nature has to offer. This 4 bedroom/3.5 bathroom home is the definition of social distancing, and has had extensive renovations done top to bottom -- there's no other home like it! Wide open main level with TONS of natural light and gleaming hardwoods throughout. The gourmet kitchen has been renovated and opened up, featuring granite counters, stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinetry & storage space with soft close drawers. A bank of windows at the back end of the kitchen looks out to a spectacular view of the back yard, wooded lot and Waters Orchard (which features its own cidery). Walk out the sliding doors off the kitchen and enjoy some quiet time in the screened in porch. Cozy family room with fireplace features two-story cathedral ceiling and plenty of sunlight. In addition, the main level houses 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom and oversized laundry room. Journey upstairs to the master bedroom with vaulted ceilings and renovated in-suite master bathroom. Second bedroom and full bath are right down the hall. Fully finished walk-out basement with wood stove, large rec space/second family room and bar area with sink and fridge. Step outside and take in the cool breeze, the chirping birds and the relaxing sounds of the water fountain all from the custom deck with its unobstructed views of the yard and the orchard. Or enjoy it all from the hot tub, and when you're done you can use the outside shower before going back inside. Owners have installed Geothermal heating & a/c to make this home truly energy efficient. Other exterior amenities include a blacktop for a basketball court, horseshoe pit and picnic area. As an added bonus, this home feeds into highly rated schools: Cedar Grove Elementary, Hallie Wells Middle School and Damascus High School. DO NOT MISS THIS ONE.

AR
Agricultural Reserve Zone
The intent of the AR zone is to promote agriculture as the primary land use in areas of the County designated for agricultural preservation in the general plan, the Functional Master Plan for Preservation of Agriculture and Rural Open Space, and other current or future master plans. The AR zone accomplishes this intent by providing large areas of generally contiguous properties suitable for agricultural and related uses and permitting the transfer of development rights from properties in this zone to properties in designated receiving areas; Agriculture is the preferred use in the AR zone. All agricultural operations are permitted at any time, including the operation of farm machinery. An agricultural use cannot be restricted on the grounds that it interferes with other uses permitted in the zone but uses that are not exclusively agricultural in nature must satisfy additional use standards or the conditional use approval process; The intent of the child lot option in the AR zone is to facilitate the continuation of the family farming unit and to otherwise meet the purposes of the AR zone.
