About This Home

Nearly 3 acres in town with sweeping countryside views and unforgettable sunsets—this custom-built residence offers over 4,700 square feet of elevated living with a rare blend of privacy and convenience. A private, tree-lined drive leads to a setting that feels removed from town, yet remains perfectly connected—an uncommon combination in today’s market. Originally built by a premier local builder as his personal residence, the home reflects exceptional craftsmanship and intentional design throughout. A dramatic two-story entry opens to expansive living spaces with nine-foot ceilings, vaulted main-level architecture, rich hardwood floors, and striking custom woodwork. Pella windows and full spray-foam insulation provide lasting comfort and efficiency. The layout offers multiple living areas, including a spacious lower-level retreat, two fireplaces, and both upper and lower-level laundry. The kitchen is well-appointed with granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, a full walk-in pantry, and generous workspace, seamlessly connected to the main living areas. Additional features include in-floor radiant heat in the lower level, a brick patio, three-season porch, covered front porch, and exceptional storage throughout. Properties offering this level of setting, scale, and build quality within town are seldom available.
