This stunning, energy-efficient retreat set on 4.2 picturesque acres effortlessly combines modern upgrades with the tranquility of countryside living. Thoughtfully designed for both comfort and sustainability, the home boasts a cutting-edge solar panel system capable of supporting EV chargers and RV hookups, a whole-house regenerative water filtration system with UV light technology, a premium water softener, and a recently upgraded well with a new pump and pressure tank. A brand-new electric water heater rounds out the suite of forward-thinking conveniences. Outdoor enthusiasts will revel in the extended driveway with RV parking, a fully fenced yard perfect for pets or livestock, and a landscape teeming with charm—a small orchard, vibrant wildflowers, privacy-enhancing trees, and even a serene woodland walking path. The small chicken coop satisfies that farming itch. Multiple outdoor spaces invite you to soak in the peaceful surroundings, whether it’s on the expansive backyard deck, the patio beneath a sleek louvered pergola, or the welcoming front porch. Store all the fun lawn toys in the oversized shed. Inside, the home continues to impress. The newly finished basement is a showstopper, featuring a full bath, a sleek bar, a private gym, and a cutting-edge theater room. On the main level, you’ll find the primary bedroom with its own full bath and two closets. At the heart of the home, the large kitchen is the center of this open floor plan and flows into the formal dining room—an entertainer’s dream. Need a dedicated home office? Yes, it has that too! And for those crisp, chilly days, retreat to the inviting sunroom, where you can cozy up by the roaring gas fireplace and watch the beauty of nature unfold just outside your window. For those with VA eligibility, assuming a VA loan with an interest rate of 4.5% is a possibility.
