Set on 12.5 wooded acres—and bordering 200 acres of conservation land—this property is a private retreat with endless possibilities. Inside, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a private bath, walk-in closets, and a flexible sitting area that could be used as a home office.
