The chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully designed with abundant cream-colored 42-inch cabinetry, including upper cabinetry and generous drawers, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and a movable island. A restaurant-quality sink is ideally placed beneath a triple casement window overlooking the rear yard, mature trees, pasture, and distant mountain views.
Just off the kitchen, a delightful three-season room offers a shiplap ceiling, brick accent wall, and walls of screened windows with interchangeable panels, creating a bright and inviting space that fully captures the surrounding landscape. This space opens seamlessly to the main-level library, complete with built-in bookcases, charming French-style doors to the sunroom, and paneled wood doors to the foyer. A cozy powder room completes the main level. Luxury vinyl plank flooring spans the entire main level, installed over the original hardwoods.
Upstairs, four well-appointed bedrooms feature hardwood floors and ceiling fans. Bedroom two serves as the guest room, enjoying sweeping pastoral and mountain views to the rear. Bedroom three offers front and side exposures along with a generous closet. Bedroom four includes a deep walk-in closet and views of the front grounds. The primary suite, privately positioned at the rear, offers elevated scenery, a ceiling fan, large walk-in closet, and an updated ensuite bath with stone countertops, raised vanity, walk-in shower, and a luxurious rain shower fixture. The upper level showcases even more dramatic eastern mountain views, particularly in the cooler months. A hall bath with a tub/shower and furniture-quality vanity serves the secondary bedrooms, while the staircase features a rich dark banister with classic white balusters and an upper landing.
The walk-out lower level provides excellent additional living space, including a recreation area with plush neutral carpeting, recessed lighting, and a tiled section ideal for a coffee or bar setup. Additional areas include a game space, workout room, utility/workshop, and a laundry room with a brand-new full-size washer and dryer and oversized sink.
Outdoors, the property continues to impress with a newly installed four-board fence with no-climb wire enclosing the rear acreage and an attractive gated entrance. With 21 acres, the possibilities are endless—create a custom equestrian facility with barn and riding ring, expand pasture, or simply enjoy the open land, wooded walking trails, and direct ride-out access along Old Waterford Road.
