Tucked into a secluded lot just minutes from the city and quick access to Hwy 26, this stunning custom farmhouse offers convenience, comfort and refined style. Set on over half an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, the property invites you to slow down and enjoy its serene, private atmosphere. Mature trees and seasonal foliage surround the home, while a series of thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces create a true retreat. Winding stone paths leading to raised garden beds and additional green space contribute to the home’s tranquil, zen like setting. Inside, the home showcases beautiful tile work, rich hardwood floors, a custom bar and elegant plantation shutters. Skylights and expansive windows fill the interior with natural light, enhancing the warm and welcoming ambiance. The open kitchen is a centerpiece, featuring a large island, high end appliances, and French doors that connect seamlessly to the outdoor living areas while the living room and cozy fireplace provide the perfect setting for relaxed evenings. The top floor primary suite serves as a sanctuary with a walk in shower, dual sinks, soaking tub and walk in closet. On the middle level, two additional bedroom suites and a fourth bedroom/office surround the family room which opens directly to a private covered patio and hot tub. Adding even more flexibility, the detached studio serves as a charming guest cottage with a full kitchen and bath. With vaulted ceilings and large windows, this space is bright and airy, perfect for hosting guests, accommodating extended stays, or creating a private studio retreat. Just a few of the many updates include a newer roof (2020), water heater, EV charging, fencing and gates, all providing peace of mind while every detail of the home reflects thoughtful care and design. This exceptional property offers refined elegance and expansive indoor/outdoor living, an inviting haven where entertaining, relaxing, and everyday living come together effortlessly.

Unique home on large private lot. Kitchen and livingroom on lower level with several French doors opening to backyard. Master suite is on the second level. Studio space above detached garage. Nice landscaped yard.
11 years ago• May not reflect the current state of the home
Very private home surrounded by plush landscaping. The layout is different and can be used in many ways. Seems to have three different family room areas and a partial kitchen (no stove) on top level. Separate apartment suite on property.
