About This Home

This substantial country estate offers the most supreme privacy in an area of thousands of acres of protected conservation land. If your first choice is privacy, it doesn't get any better than this. Situated on 78 acres, one drives through the impressive stone entrance, and a long, paved driveway takes you through your very own open countryside, through a row of trees, and again to open pasture. After passing the impressive stable the drive winds up to a parklike setting and, completing the long-drive approach, to a particularly fine country house built to exacting specifications. Built of stone and Hardie Plank, and approximately 6,500 sq. ft., the home features 10' ceilings. Enter the manor-sized entry reception hall and your first glance features an elegant "good-morning" staircase. Off the reception hall is a den with bookshelves, a full bath, and a bright sunroom. It also leads into a large gathering room with massive pub beams and fireplace and then on into a sizeable, formal dining room. A fully-fitted kitchen and a light-filled breakfast room looks out into the forest. Beyond the oversized pantry, there is a spacious laundry room, a place for boots and coats, that leads to garaging for three cars equipped with automatic doors. Up the "good-morning" staircase leads to a comfortable sitting/piano room looking down into the entrance. Follow an extra-wide hallway and one finds the primary suite with well-proportioned accommodations that include a lounge, bath, bed chamber, sunny sitting spaces and a king-sized walk-in closet. Two other bedrooms, with 2 double closets each and a Jack and Jill bath complete this level. Down the staircase to the lower level, one finds a TV area, a bedroom, full bath, and a first class, very spacious media/recreation room with lots of windows with remote control shades and a bar arrangement. It opens to a stone patio. From here it is a short walk to the stable with double doors at both ends, two stalls with space for others, a wash rack, 1/2 bath and laundry area. Upstairs there is a multi-purpose area possibly for an exercise room, farm office, home business or lounge area, with full bath and features a deck with lovely views. If you like a leisurely stroll or morning ride, there are what seems to be endless lovely, wooded trails for exercise or relaxation. You can almost walk all day without leaving your own property, and the emphasis here is on privacy. It's own little world with wildlife, bird watching and fresh country air. There are homes nearby but none to be seen from your large, stone front porch. This immaculate country home is located close to the historic, much-favored hamlet of Casanova, featuring a tiny, charming, U.S. post office, the ancient Weston House on the National Register, the 275 acre Weston Wildlife Conservation Site and the well-known Poplar Springs Resort and Spa. There is a partial-house generator and a small, fenced kitchen garden, 1000-gallon buried propane tank that conveys. A security system. Starlink equipment in the house conveys. Stable is wired for Starlink but no equipment conveys. Verify square footage and dimensions. Dining room drapes do not convey. Eleven closets. Subject property in the Land Use tax program.
