All counters in every area are granite/marble. Quaint reading/reflections nook off dining area provides a perfect perch where you will enjoy moments that will create memories: A deer pausing to drink from the shore of the quaint lake, fall foliage bursting into color, a rare chance to see a bear disappear into the woods or turkeys feeding nearby. The owners suite on the main floor has a unique sitting room/sunroom for a quite moment to curl up with a book or perhaps your preference would be a luxurious soak in the en suite slipper tub? Lovely tiled shower is another option on days when being out the door is more pressing. Be sure to notice the stained glass windows throughout the residence in unexpected areas.

You will notice the same materials were used in this room and a mini-split system was added for controlling the heat/air. A half bath for convenience and multitudes of storage are just a few extra features.
