The approach through the wrought-iron double gates sets the tone for the space and privacy this property offers. Inside, the home features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, designer lighting, wide-plank LVP flooring, and a large kitchen with a center island, statement hood, brass accents, and a huge walk-in pantry. The one floor ranch open layout brings in natural light and provides clear views of the pool and wooded surroundings. The primary suite includes a walk-in shower, soaking tub, dual vanities, and curated tile selections. Secondary bedrooms are positioned for privacy, and the home offers a dedicated drop zone, spacious laundry, and generous storage. Outdoor living includes a heated in-ground pool with waterfall features, a separate hot tub, covered porch, and a pond on the property. The land extends into open lawn and wooded areas suitable for recreation or future use. Additional features include an ADU above the garage with a full bathroom, kitchenette, and separate bedroom/living area. There is also an 1,800 sq. ft. detached building with oversized doors for equipment, storage, or workspace as well as perimeter fencing and an electric gate at the entrance. A rare opportunity to own usable acreage, custom construction, and extensive indoor/outdoor space in one property.
