Your own private sanctuary! Enjoy tranquil 11+ secluded acres, yet live conveniently located less than 10 min from Fogelsville and Routes 100 & 78. Enjoy the outdoors with private walking trails through the woods, a fire pit, fenced garden & creek with new bridge. Built in 1885, this farmhouse enjoyed a full renovation and addition in 2004, which was completed with much care to the highest standards to maintain and preserve the original home. Original wide plank knotty pine flooring & exposed logs remain! The newer section has been finished with reclaimed oak plank flooring, wooden beams & supports from the barn that once stood on the property. The chefs kitchen has a 6 burner Blue Star gas stove, custom cabinetry, high end appliances, granite countertop. Must see the kitchen to appreciate- the pictures really can’t portray how nicely built it is. First floor modern full bath is tiled and has a rainfall shower. Off the kitchen is a living room which is cozy with the original exposed log walls, hardwood floors, and fireplace with wood burning insert. Huge great room with separate foyer entry, half bath and fireplace is perfect for gatherings. Enjoy dining outdoors in the peaceful setting on the patio, located off the kitchen through a sliding glass door, with an automatic awning. The second floor with wood flooring throughout has three bedrooms (one is a pass-through), a sitting room and a full bath with claw foot tub & shower, walk-in closet and covered porch. No need to worry with a whole house automatic generator and the HVAC was upgraded in 2022. Home layout is perfect for certain home occupations, with the separate entry upstairs and the finished basement office area with exterior entry. * Act 319 *
