This brilliant post and beam masterpiece redefines the meaning of barn conversion. The resulting achievement is a spacious, airy, light-filled home that makes you feel connected with the wooded and private 14-acre hilltop, framed by every oversized window. The first floor is boldly open and tall yet delivers an intimate warmth. The flow between the spacious rooms and gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry and ceramic tile countertops, is inviting and free. Interior walls aspire to be gallery space while vast windows and glass doors welcome the four seasons, wooded valleys, decks and inground pool. Upstairs, the master bedroom suite is a romantic treetop oasis with remarkable views and a daring spirit of open space. Two additional bedrooms, distinctive in their own right, embrace a cozy sitting room that is part den and part loft. The lower level provides ample workspace, a laundry, and convenient indoor access to an oversized two-car garage.

To avoid nuisance complaints against farmers from new residents, by not encouraging dense residential growth near active large farms or livestock operations. To provide for certain nonagricultural uses that support and are compatible with farming operations.
