Thoughtfully updated, the residence features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a greenhouse, and a sauna, with two of the three bedrooms newly constructed. Inside, soaring 9-foot pine ceilings, freshly whitewashed pine walls, and a semi-open floor plan create a refined blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort. Concrete floors throughout, partial handicap accessibility, and a no-edge shower further enhance the home's timeless design. A newly constructed atrium and unfinished guest apartment provide exceptional potential, envisioned to include a kitchen, living area, bedroom, and spacious bathroom. Designed to maximize natural light, this impressive space features a poured concrete floor, twelve 5x5 windows, six skylights, four exterior doors, and elegant French doors that open to a flourishing plum orchard, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The meticulously maintained grounds are equally impressive, highlighted by a mature apple orchard, a newly installed fire pit for memorable evenings beneath expansive skies, and an expansive five-stall drive-through garage with a generous mudroom offering convenient access to both the atrium and apartment. A newer septic system further complements the property's extensive improvements. Combining privacy, craftsmanship, and self-sufficient living with endless possibilities, this extraordinary estate delivers a lifestyle that is as distinctive as it is unforgettable.
