We must give a "shout-out" to the charm of the original designer's vision, to seamlessly, blend, the magnificent "rustic" appointments, so deserving in this wooded setting, with modern day convenience. Gorgeous, wide plank hardwood covers most of the main level (sans bath & laundry). The casual, easy flow floor plan lets you decide how to use these large rooms. The front room/living room boasts a brick surround wood burning fireplace, with raised hearth, complemented by a true, rough hewn, wooden mantle, reminiscent of times gone by. Opposite, is the huge family room, with a mounted TV bracket that will convey. Across the rear of the home, lies the real "heart of the home"......the kitchen/dining/family room area, complete with a house-warming wood stove. Rear door exits onto wide steps, leading to a 40' x 20' concrete patio. Turn on to this non-thru street and immediately travel on the long, private, paved drive, to your honest-to-goodness, retreat in the woods, surrounded by mature trees, nature & local wildlife (think deer, birds, chipmunks; the occasional bunny or fox). Over 2.25, low maintenance, acres, begging for a treehouse or lazy summertime hammocks strung between trees. The large, secluded rear patio, will become a welcome respite while savoring morning coffee or sipping evening wine. Aside from the oversized two-car side load garage, there is guest parking for about six more vehicles, with easy "turn-around" room. Some major upgrades: HVAC June 2025; roof 2017; windows - less than 5 years; water heater has a lifetime warranty (not on labor). Well yield was 17gpm. Septic was pumped in 2025 & inspected in 2026. Where else can you enjoy this much serenity, yet be minutes to restaurants, supermarkets, boutiques, schools, etc. Make this your little piece of paradise this year.
