Step Into the Simple Life—One Timeless Detail at a Time If you've been dreaming of a peaceful retreat, where life slows down & every detail whispers comfort & craftsmanship, your dream home has just come available. Tucked away on a fully fenced, horse-zoned property, this custom-built Saltbox Colonial is truly one-of-a-kind. Built with love & intention beginning in 1977, this home took 8 years to complete—& every inch of it tells a story. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by a layout that blends timeless design with warm functionality. Wide-plank Georgia pine floors with hand-crafted wood pegs stretch throughout the home, setting the stage for a feeling that’s equal parts history & heart. Vaulted cedar ceilings & exposed beams bring a rustic elegance, & even the closets are lined in cedar, because every detail matters here. The custom kitchen is the kind of space where family recipes are passed down & holiday meals are shared with generations. It flows seamlessly into a generous dining room made for gathering everyone around the table. And when it’s time to retreat, the luxurious master suite offers total privacy, featuring a spa-like bathroom with a deep soaking tub & radiant heated floors. At the heart of the home is a classic colonial inglenook fireplace, updated with a large gas log insert—perfect for cozy nights & snowy mornings. The private main-level guest suite, there's room for everyone, whether it’s visiting family or a live-in guest. And stepping outside? That’s where the magic continues. The entire property is fenced & gated, with a beautifully manicured front yard that’s separately enclosed to protect vibrant lilacs, peonies, & heirloom plantings from the deer. Just a few feet from the house, gather around the firepit & listen to the soothing sound of the custom-built waterfall, turning every summer evening into a staycation in your own backyard paradise. Don’t let this one pass you by. Homes like this rarely come along!
