Surrounded by rolling meadows, a peaceful water feature, stone walls, and mature trees, the property offers privacy and pastoral elegance. Inside, the thoughtful layout features 4 bedrooms and 5 baths, including a main-level bedroom with a full bath—ideal as a home office or guest suite. The newly renovated kitchen is a standout, with quartz and stainless countertops, stainless steel appliances, wide pumpkin pine plank floors, skylights, and a cozy fireplace.
