Spanning five levels with four bedrooms, two full and one half bathrooms, this idyllic retreat boasts serene woodland vistas and floods of natural light that infuse every space with tranquility. As you arrive, a long meandering drive sets the tone for the enchantment that awaits at this private oasis. Step into a haven of light and space, where oversized windows and skylights illuminate a neutral palette, hardwood floors, and lofty ceilings adorned with wood planks and exposed beams. The foyer has hidden shoe storage, leading into a majestic living room showcasing a vaulted ceiling, a stunning stone fireplace with a wood stove, and built-in bookcases. Sliding glass doors invite seamless indoor-outdoor living on the screened porch, while the adjacent dining area beckons for intimate gatherings. The kitchen, a culinary haven, features stainless steel appliances, butcher block counters, a breakfast bar, a massive skylight, a heated floor, and access to a wraparound deck. A half bathroom with gorgeous Gucci Heron wallpaper finishes the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite awaits, highlighting a soaring cathedral ceiling, dual walk-in closets, and access to the main level deck. Indulge in the opulent primary bathroom, complete with a jetted soaking tub and walk-in shower. Ascend to the upper level loft, a versatile space perfect for a home office, library, or a lounge spot for unwinding amidst elevated views. Downstairs, the lower level hosts three bedrooms, including one with a loft bed, and a shared full bathroom with a tub shower. Descend further to discover a convenient laundry room and a two-car garage with a workshop, while the basement offers ample storage with shelving. Outside, the wraparound deck invites al fresco dining and grilling, while a paver stone patio extends the outdoor living space. The fenced pool area is an entertainer's paradise, featuring a covered bar and a changing area with power supply. You will love spending summers by the pool and hosting parties for years to come. A whimsical tree house awaits exploration amidst the park-like grounds. Nestled in the woods, this peaceful home is a private retreat, yet just minutes from all that Maple Lawn, Clarksville and Columbia have to offer. Quick access to highway routes 32, 29 and 95. Energy-efficient solar panels are leased with a payoff option and taxable square feet does not reflect all three guest bedrooms which are right at or inches below grade.
