About This Home

Imagine yourself coming home to your own private 51.77-acre estate, where luxury living and wide-open space finally meet. As you arrive, your front porch sets the tone--an inviting place where you can sit back, take in the view, and enjoy the quiet that surrounds you. Step inside to warm hardwood floors that guide you through spacious, light-filled rooms designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. Your kitchen becomes the heart of the home--custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a deep hammered copper farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, 6-burner cooktop with pot filler, warming drawer, and smart built-ins that make everything feel intentional and refined. You'll find multiple spaces to relax and gather, including a sunroom with heated floors where you can enjoy the view in every season. The family room and living room both offer fireplaces that make this home feel welcoming year-round, while the coffered ceiling in the family room adds a subtle touch of elegance. Your primary suite is designed as a true retreat. Heated tile floors, a spa-like bath with a jetted garden tub, oversized walk-in shower with steam and jets, and a generous walk-in closet create a space that feels like a private getaway within your own home. Out back, your deck overlooks the full sweep of your property--stables, open land, and winding trails stretching into the distance. It's the kind of view that changes with every season, but never loses its sense of peace and privacy. The land is ready for the lifestyle you've been looking for. A large outbuilding gives you an additional 3-car garage, an 8-stall horse barn with tack area, and a spacious pole barn with water service to the stables. Groomed trails wind through the acreage, ready for horseback riding, ATV riding, or simply exploring your own land whenever you choose. With a brand-new roof on both the home and outbuilding, you can focus on enjoying the property--not worrying about it. This is where your space expands, your lifestyle opens up, and every day feels a little more like an escape.
