Spacious Custom home on mixed wood/pasture 47 acres, ponds
Beautiful country home with 47 Acres and 3 Ponds! The only way to describe this 3686 sf home is EXTRAORDINARY! There are 4 Bedrooms, 3.5 Bathrooms, a professional kitchen and was constructed to last for generations to come. The home is set toward the back of the property, sited with a pond and a partially wooded area behind it so there is maximum privacy and views. It feels like you are living at a retreat. You drive through the front entry, with good grass pasture and 2 ponds on side of the driveway. A peaceful feeling accompanies you all the way to the home that has handsome stonework and a modern country design. Just before you get to the home, there is a 40' x 60' metal workshop/shed, with room for your own protable stalls if you have horses or other livestock, to the right of the driveway. The 10' deep front porch is large and wraps around the home on 3 sides, plus the back porch. There is a huge attached covered open-air parking area that can also double as an outdoor living space and is part of the architectural design of the home. A new storm cellar was installed Winter 2017. Walk into the long entry way and see the double French doors at the end of the living area which flood the home with natural light. There is room in the entryway to sit and remove your shoes, hats and whatnot and also a coat closet. The entryway, living area and kitchen have a handscraped look, high quality laminate flooring, finished pinewood ceilings, custom light fixtures and ceiling fans. The walls are finished with bull nose corners and wood trim. The decor throughout the home was well thought out. There are two rooms off the entryway before going into the main living area. The rooms can be used for whatever is needed, home-office-bedrooms-library area-media room-or extra living area. Both are good sized and one is extra large and was used as a man cave. The living area is large with double French doors and although there is no fireplace, the construction of the family room included a place for a fireplace or woodstove so it could be easily added if the next owner likes that feature. The living room opens into the kitchen for easy entertaining and lots of family participation. The huge kitchen will satisfy the cook in the family, with all professional grade stainless steel appliances, including a 6 burner gas top with griddle, double convection ovens with a warming drawer beneath, a 6' plus double refrigerator/freezer, a commercial double sink with a pot filler faucet, professional dishwasher and a separate sink near the refrigerator! There are extra cabinets - all custom hickory wood, extra countertops (granite), 2 covered appliance bays, 2 pantries with frosted etched glass doors, tile backsplash, giant island with seating and a window with a view of the back pond. Off the kitchen in its own built-out bay, with 2 sides of windows, is a fabulous dining area. This could also be used as a hearth room or sun room, if you prefer to put a dining table in part of the living area. It has extra tall windows, with a pretty view of the wooded area and lily pad pond behind the home. The downstairs main powder room with toilet is right off the living area and next to it down the hallway is the large 11'x 13' laundry room. No more clean laundry in the mudroom! The two main bedrooms are downstairs across from the laundry room, very large with walk-in closets, lots of windows and they share a beautiful classic black and white tiled bathroom, that has black marble countertops and double sinks. There is plenty of counter space and drawers for two! The master bedroom is off the opposite end of the home for quietude. The room is large enough for a sitting or reading area. The large master bathroom has a 5' x 8' shower with two rain shower heads at both ends and 6 separate body sprays. Brazilian Ipe wood, which is beautiful and durable and often used for outdoor applications, trims the outside shower
