"Exceptional" does not begin to describe this property! Spread out on all 5 acres with over 6,000 square feet of living space, comprised of the first and second floors, and the finished area of the walk out basement. Situated in a private setting and on a cul de sac, yet minutes from local conveniences, this home is your private retreat. The welcoming front porch opens through double doors to a grand foyer, where warm hardwood floors and tons of natural light invite you in. The main floor boasts a large open family room/informal dining area as well as a formal dining room, two additional rooms currently used as home offices, two half baths, a spacious and well-organized laundry room, and a mud room with built-in shelving just off the 4+-car garage. There is additional attic storage in the garage. The kitchen is a chef's dream with a large island with seating capacity, Subzero refrigerator/freezer, Wolf range, 2 double ovens, 2 ASKO dishwashers, built-in microwave, plenty of custom cabinetry and a truly unique rain forest marble island top and counter tops. The large walk-in pantry is conveniently adjacent. A large master suite with dressing room, walk-in closet, soaking tub, four additional bedrooms and three full baths, and additional built-in storage shelving completes the second floor. The basement is an additional family room with pool table and bar, propane stove, full bath, work-out room, and a bedroom and bath which allows for the potential of a guest suite in the future. There is plenty of basement storage and room for a workshop, and an additional overhead door allows for easy access for your mowers and outdoor equipment. The walk-out basement opens to a patio surrounding the in-ground pool and deck. The pool house allows for plenty of storage for your pool and patio furniture. The grounds around the home are beautifully landscaped with perennials, a fire pit, and a short walk through the woods at the back of the property provides not only privacy, but stunning views of the City of Elmira as well. There are just too many features of this property to mention!
