Nestled against 200 acres of protected land and surrounded by vibrant forest, this contemporary home offers bright, flowing spaces filled with natural light through expansive windows and thoughtfully placed skylights. The open floor plan features generous cathedral ceilings, creating an airy, welcoming environment throughout. The first floor layout includes a spacious primary bedroom with king size bed, versatile playroom/child's room with a bunk bed, and two full bathrooms, one with a bathtub. Upstairs, you'll find a home office with a brand-new queen size pull-out couch and stationary bike, a cozy guest bedroom with queen size bed, large windows and a charming spiral staircase, and a loft space overlooking the living room complete with built-in desk and soft carpeting. The guest bathroom houses a large and new washer and dryer set. The heart of the home combines living and dining areas anchored by an efficient propane stove that provides both warmth and ambiance during cooler months. The kitchen features custom oak cabinetry, good size pantry, quality appliances including a large deep freezer in the adjoining closet, and attractive new countertops that complement the home's natural aesthetic. Step outside to discover multiple spaces for relaxation and enjoyment: thoughtful professional landscaping and a spacious front lawn, intimate backyard with swing set and fire pit, and a charming screened room with lighting and fan perfect for morning coffee or evening conversations while enjoying the surrounding nature. The property also includes a convenient shed for storing bikes, garbage cans, and outdoor equipment. Perhaps most distinctive is the detached four-season studio with its own half bathroom, built-in bookshelves, mini-split climate control, abundant natural light through skylights, and a small but powerful wood-burning stove. This is an ideal space for focused work, creative projects, or additional guest accommodation with the brand new queen size pull-out couch.
