Property description
Peaceful, private, contemporary home uniquely nestled into a woodland hillside. The property will offer all sorts of surprise flowering plants, bushes and trees throughout the year. The current homeowners have created pathways throughout the property with daffodils lining the trails. So many peaceful vantage points throughout the property. Trees were removed in the rear of the yard to provide a light filled backyard and forest floor. As you enter the two story foyer, you will find a beautiful warm wood paneled door surrounded by sidelights and a transom, custom terracotta flooring leading to a large eat-in kitchen and twin skylights bringing light from above. In the eat-in kitchen, there is a custom stacked stone fireplace surround with wood-stove insert to bring warmth on those cool days and nights. Two sliding doors lead out to the wrap-around deck from the kitchen and the living room/dining room ~ perfect for entertaining! The living room/dining room space with knotty wide board hardwood floors spans from the front to the back of the house and can accommodate any setup. Upstairs there are three generous bedrooms. The master has more of the knotty wide board flooring, a large walk-in closet with a California closet organizer system, a corner built-in and en-suite bathroom. The lower level is appointed with a tiled mudroom connecting the garage and an office/workout flex space. This property offers many wonderful unique features! Make your appointment today!
