Lovingly maintained and enhanced over time, you'll find a rare combination of architectural charm, graceful living spaces, and a sense of quiet retreat surrounded by protected land. The gracious foyer introduces interiors filled with warmth and personality, where rich finishes and curated details create a home that feels both refined and deeply comfortable. The living room, anchored by a fireplace, opens seamlessly to a terrace, inviting an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. A very generous dining room and a cozy, wood-paneled family room offer intimate spaces for gathering or unwinding, while the recently renovated kitchen is both functional and beautifully designed, with custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and beautiful western sunlight with views across the property. Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms include a serene primary suite with a newly designed bath and custom closet. Each additional bedroom offers its own sense of privacy and comfort. A separate studio complete with its own full bath and walk-in closet, provides exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or a private work-from-home suite. The grounds are as special as the home itself.
