"Heart of the Country" yet minutes from everything is the best way to describe this gorgeous custom home that has it all. The nearly 14 acres are fully fenced and provide a peaceful and pastoral setting with amazing panoramic views of the mountains and farmland. The home features a 3-zone HVAC system with whole house generator. The open plan design with vaulted ceiling includes a stone fireplace, hickory floors and cabinets. The bedrooms are spacious, the garage is over-sized and the former photography studio offers too many possibilities to include here. The rear patio is perfect for entertaining or just relaxing and enjoying some amazing sunsets. This is total escapism without sacrifice.
