Beautifully crafted Colonial nestled on 5 acres of manicured grounds with mature pine trees strategically placed for privacy in the historic St. John River Valley. This home with it's exquisite craftmanship, high ceilings and large rooms give a feeling of spaciousness not commonly seen in other homes. The generously sized triple pane windows allow the natural light to flood the rooms while providing great comfort in their heat retention capabilities. No detail was overlooked in the labor of love necessary to make this house a home. The large kitchen with double ovens, expansive pantry, cookware hanging rack, 3 bay undermount stainless steel sink and solid surface counters is a dream come true to the resident chef. The dining room space, open to the kitchen has beautiful built out bay windows capturing the flowing beauty of the St. John and its river banks. The pellet fireplace and massive brick chimney provide a warmth and country charm to the space. With wood ceilings and white oak real wood floors the guest will linger in the comfort it oozes. Glass doors expand the room to a large deck to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding landscape, the gazebo and stone barbecue at the lower level. After a hearty meal what better place to digest it than in the overly roomy yet cozy living room. The real hardwood floors and tile floors throughout speak to the quality. From the airy entry, to the common areas, to the bath rooms, to the bedrooms and even the closets, one will never feel confined inside these walls. The wide hardwood stairs to the upper levels lead to 6' wide halls and a library and craft room that provide a hobby place to create or a place to read in solitude while soaking in the warmth of the propane stove. The upper library balcony is another great vantage point to take in the St. Johns beauty. The whole house generator allows uninterrupted comfort along with the dual heating system in the walkout basement. Explore the rivers banks like an endless lake today.
