Thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, the home feels warm, expansive and entirely distinctive. The entry sets the tone with exposed wood ceilings, brick floors and colorful art-glass windows that bring a subtle mid-century spirit to the home. Beyond, beamed ceilings, skylights, hardwood floors and a stone fireplace give the main living spaces a sense of warmth and architectural depth. The kitchen is designed for serious cooking and easy gathering, with solid wood cabinetry, a copper farmhouse sink, dramatic copper range hood, six-burner Thermador gas range with electric oven and a separate wall oven. Passive-solar brick flooring continues into the adjoining dining room, where a wall of windows overlooks the pond and a Buck wood-burning stove adds warmth and character. Built-in cabinetry, a generous window seat and abundant storage lend charm without sacrificing function, while a screened porch and multiple patios extend the living spaces into the surrounding landscape. Outside, native perennial gardens, layered stone walls and mature woods create a setting that feels private, peaceful and alive with nature. The pond is stocked with sunfish and bass and 131 species of birds have been identified on the property - the most in all of Orange County. The land is equally suited to equestrian or small-farm pursuits, with a fenced pasture, four-stall stable, chicken coop, barn and additional outbuildings. A converted detached garage provides separate studio and workshop spaces, offering exceptional flexibility for creative work, hobbies or storage. This is more than a home—it is a one-of-a-kind retreat shaped by history, craftsmanship and a deep connection to the land.
