Designed by a respected architect for the original owners and built by Abrahamse, the cedar sided home with copper roof feels like a sophisticated tree house, with expansive windows bringing the surrounding wooded landscape indoors. A curved architectural wall welcomes you in the entry, while the inviting living room features a vaulted ceiling and wood-burning fireplace.

The first-floor primary suite is complemented by an adjacent den. Upstairs, two private bedrooms share a full bath. The sunny terrace level provides additional living space with a recreation room, renovated full bath and bedroom/combination room. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, newer heat pump and exterior paint.
