Tucked away in a breathtaking wooded ravine setting, this one-of-a-kind property is unlike anything you have ever laid eyes on-not a phrase used lightly. From the moment you arrive, you will see this is not just a home, but a labor of love, a work of art, & a retreat from the ordinary world. Current owners have poured extraordinary time, energy, & resources into an inspired top-to-bottom transformation – breathing new life into every corner while honoring the home’s uniquely striking architecture. The hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout. At the heart of the home, the remodeled gourmet kitchen is nothing short of spectacular-designed for the passionate home cook & the entertainer. It opens naturally to the wrap-around porch, combining indoor comfort & the serene natural beauty just outside. The elegantly casual dining room perfect for any gathering. The living room w/ it’s fireplace, flows openly into the family room & bar area, creating a layout that is as functional as it is fun- whether you are hosting an intimate dinner or a lively gathering of family & friends. Venture upstairs to find the primary bedroom retreat, w/unique loft space nearby. Other bedrooms are spacious & with large slider windows too. Every bathroom in the home has been thoughtfully updated, reflecting the same commitment to quality & detail found throughout. Unfinished full walk-out basement has been framed and ready for your final finishes-including plumbed for an additional bathroom. Step outside & the magic only deepens. The wrap-around porch sweeps from front door to relaxation deck off living room and on to the backside off kitchen. All spaces soaking in the extraordinary surroundings. The backyard beckons with an outdoor bar house built for entertaining under the open sky, a charming chicken coop for the hobby farmer at heart, firepit & the gentle, soothing sound of a small trickling creek weaving through the property. This is the kind of home that photos can struggle to capture & words simply cannot do justice. An in-person visit is not just recommended- it is absolutely essential!! Once you see it for yourself, you will understand exactly why. This one is an experience!
