The gourmet kitchen features high-end appliances, large island and nearby breakfast area which overlooks the home’s front garden. Just off the kitchen is the dining area. Gorgeous hardwood floors gleam throughout this naturally sunlit home. The dining room is open to the large living room, complete with fireplace and high ceilings. To further the living area, there is a screened porch overlooking the fenced rear yard and offers indoor/outdoor enjoyment though out the seasons. The kitchen, dining and living room offers open beam ceiling. A generously sized private primary bedroom and bath are on the main level. Retreat to the sunroom for another beautiful living space on the main level. Upstairs offers a second, very large master with private bath. Three more bedrooms and the third full bath complete the upper level. The full unfinished basement with 9 foot ceilings allows entrance through the main home or via steps directly from the attached garage. The outdoor improvements include two pole buildings, a nicely appointed horse barn and paddock. A generously sized shop complete with large overhead doors, concrete floor and attached outdoor kitchen/entertaining area is located toward the side of the home. The 48ft x75ft Morton pole barn is move in ready with electric and water, perfect for hay or equipment storage. The 5-stall horse barn was thoughtfully designed with safety and comfort in mind. Stalls vary in size from 10ft x12ft to 16ft x12ft. With plenty of room to expand, the 40ft x100ft horse barn can easily accommodate construction of another 6 to 7 stalls. The lush 3 acre pasture offers a large run-in shed and Nelson automatic hot and cold waterer. The adjoining acreage is plumbed for two additional Nelson water systems, ready for fencing to complete additional paddock space. This beautiful property is conveniently located near the quaint town of Townsend, the shopping of Middletown, yet off the beaten path, allowing for privacy and peaceful country living overlooking scenic farmland. This property as well as neighboring land is in Farm Preservation, so the pastoral views will remain for years to come. The property lends itself to the equestrian lifestyle or any number of outdoor activities. The impeccably cared for and thoughtfully constructed property is the epitome of modern country living, a true gem. Audio/visual security system in place on the property. Owners are willing to consider selling additional acreage.
