This expanded Contemporary Cape is sited beautifully to take advantage of the stunning river front lot. Additionally, the orientation of the home takes maximum advantage of active solar collection (panels are owned) and passive solar gain. The main floor has an open concept space with living room and fireplace, cathedral ceiling, dining area and remodeled kitchen with granite countertops. The space is augmented by an architect designed music room with cathedral ceiling and customized windows. The tiled foyer has two closets, shoe storage and access to the attached two car garage. Also on the first floor are two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, laundry room and storage closets. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms each with ensuite bath. The primary bedroom has large windows capturing the beautiful view of the grounds and the bath is newly renovated. The walkout basement is divided into two rooms. On one side is an office with multiple built-in workstations.The other side includes a home gym/flex space with a sliding door that opens onto a brick patio with a hot tub and outdoor shower. The house has multi-level decks which make for great indoor/outdoor living. An above ground pool is nicely integrated into the decking and landscaping. There is a large shed and custom playscape as well as many gardens and specialty plantings (blueberries!). The front of the property has a custom designed cedar fence. The big sky is ideal for stargazing, and go sledding down the hill in winter. The rear property line is the West River which borders a woodland and meadow sanctuary creating a retreat teeming with pollinators, wildflowers and birds. The home’s large windows offer a view of this magical setting all day, while walking its well-maintained pathways provides up close enjoyment. The home is conveniently located close to town, approximately one mile to schools, Bittner Park, I-95 and two miles to the Guilford Green.
