Discover your private escape on this 5.5-acre wooded estate. This Craftsman-inspired brick traditional greets you with a sprawling front porch and a grand two-story foyer featuring a dramatic staircase. Designed for high-capacity living and entertaining, the heart of the home is a voluminous living room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and a chef’s kitchen boasting an expansive island and a rare dual-pantry system. The main level offers a private primary retreat with a spa-like ensuite and patio access, plus a secondary guest bedroom. The oversized laundry room with wrap-around cabinetry can double as a craft hub.

With designer accent tones, durable wide-plank flooring, and significant architectural detail, this unique property offers unparalleled equity potential and is priced well below the recent appraised value.
